You saw him well before most of us. Our little Athens GA PR firm signed them on in December of 2013 and were able to elevate their exposure through a college and NPR radio campaign. People either loved or hated their sound, the majority of course, loving it. My only moment with Paul was sitting and having dinner with him at the now defunct Branded Butcher restaurant before a show at the Georgia Theater in Athens GA as we sat down with a group from the Grammy's & Recording Academy Atlanta office, including amazingly sharp Michele Caplinger.. ANyway, I ramble but was glad to see your post. They're just So good, and had a terrific show at the Georgia Theater. ..I miss them, as they are now a 'previous' client of our little PR firm Team Clermont. They moved on to a bigger firm and we respect them for that. loving seeing the success. congrats.
true indeed. im from peru and we just get only really bad pop music from usa. since i discover that 2 youtube channel my faith has been restored. great, great music.
I work concert security and have seen a TON of bands but nobody compares to this lead singer. I was fortunate to work their New Year's show. Truly talented.
What an incredible breath of fresh air from what is currently out there. Thank you St. P and the BBs for bringing back the Memphis sound and in particular the late great Big. O. (Otis Redding to the uninformed).
I'm gonna be honest I've always aligned myself with metal music, but it hasn't been giving me "that feeling" anymore. However, this right here is giving me "that feeling" I haven't felt in years. I'm buying their album as we speak.
Although your comment is 5 years old I gotta answer to that because it's so exactly how it's for me. Metal music except for some exceptions just doesn't give me that feeling it used to anymore. But these guys... damn
No one music genre is ever gonna give "that feeling" forever unless you're musically close minded. Ive been on a 4 almost 5 year music journey (aye about the same time as you probably) and im listening to just about everything now. Metal is where is started for me too.
I second this about Marcus King...I used to be one of those people that only listened to a few bands in a single genre.....now I listen to EVERYTHING I find on KEXP, Tiny Desk, Mahogany, a few other great channels, I love it! Rap? Great! Metal? Great! Experimental folk? Awesome! Bring it all....found Aldous Harding, the Idles, King Gizz, Alabama shakes (and Brittany Howard!), sylvan esso, amyl n the sniffers, greta van fleet, rival sons, Tom Mcdonald, hobo johnson... soooo many others this way!
this band has changed my life - so soulful, so heartfelt, so real - music is so magical - words cannot express the reality that is St Paul and The Broken Bones - Good God All Mighty!
The song "It's Midnight" reminds me of those ole country juke joints we used to go to back in the day. They were deep in the woods and it would be hot with no air, no liquor license but a bootlegger on staff (usually the owner...lol), full of beer a jar each of pickled pigs feet, pickled eggs, hot pickled sausage along with sweat, funk and some sho-nuff partyin'! Wow!
This is a truly amazing band. I am a metal head to the core, but I have also love talent, I love jazz, I love classical, and I LOVE this. I got to see them live last year live in Charleston, WV. Show BLEW me away.
I discovered this group through iTunes single of the week. I totally love their sound. I used to live in New Orleans and they take me back to those days of awesome bluesy music. I wish them so much deserved success.
The guitarist, Browan Lollar, was the guitarist for Jason Isbell's 400 Unit. The keyboardist, Al Gamble, is the brother of Chad Gamble, the drummer who absolutely beats the shit out of those skins for the 400 Unit. It's that Muscle Shoals sound I grew up with in the 70's and I love it.
I heard an interview, when after jamming with the St Paul band the guitarist said he had to be part of this, and quit his other band....I say GOOD call, this is something special....
This band, this man, this talent restores faith in today's music. I wonder why mainstream media thinks the junk they put out is ok. It's insulting. In that respect, I hope this band stays far away from what is "popular." Stay true to your beautiful soulful selves.
Love, love, love this band. The lead vocalist is preaching the Gospel, the horn section is so tight it makes my boots hurt from my toes curling up, and the rhythm section is really running the show, but doesn't let on, just like a good rhythm section should. Y'all are on my radar, next time you make it down to the Mobile area.
The audio engineer guy from the studio, did also a fantastic job here! Amazing! Among all the videos from SPBB through youtube, I always go back to this one as my favorite in audio balance!
So great. KEXP & Paul both do it again! if I may daydream for a moment...

This band is pretty damn amazing. Sad story, I was out at the bars here in Tuscaloosa, AL and Walked in to a Place called Green bar where they were playing to see two buddies. Before, I had seen posters for them all over the bar. Anyhow, I walk in and told them "Man! this band is pretty fucking good!". Here's the sad part. I end up only staying 5 mins because i was out with some other friends,and not a day goes by i wish i had ditched my other group of friends and stayed lol.
@@defstrikem2743 There is plenty of soulful music left in the South.....As for Alabama, might I recommend Jason Isbell, The Alabama Shakes, Banditos, Lee Bains III and The Glory Fires, and Anderson East.
Going to see them Friday night, they're amazing. Reminds me of the good ole soul music I listened to from that small transistor radio under my pillow every night.
Just saw them in Greenville, SC at "Fall for Greenville". I was anticipating seeing and hearing them and I was NOT disappointed. They are fantastic. I highly encourage anyone to go to their concert. You will have a great time and you will be dancing even if you don't dance. You just can't help it. Their music moves your spirit and soul. Worth your time and expense. What you experience is Paul's passion oozing out of his music and the group follows suit. As a disclaimer, I am not getting paid to say this. Get their schedule and try to see and hear them.
This is the first band I've heard in about 25 years that grabbed me right from the first measure of the first song. Separate issue -- who knew that David Spade turned up as a DJ in Seattle?
