\nPaul Thorn \;has created an innovative and impressive career\, pleasing crowds with his muscular brand of roots music &ndash\; bluesy\, rocking and thoroughly Southern American\, yet also speaking universal truths. Among those who value originality\, inspiration\, eccentricity and character &ndash\; as well as talent that hovers somewhere on the outskirts of genius\, the story of Paul Thorn is already familiar.
\nRaised in Tupelo\, Mississippi\, among the same spirits (and some of the actual people) who nurtured the young Elvis generations before\, Paul Thorn has rambled down back roads and jumped out of airplanes\, worked for years in a furniture factory\, battled four-time world champion boxer \;Roberto Duran \;on national television\, signed with and been dropped by a major label\, performed on stages with \;Bonnie Raitt\, \;Mark Knopfler\, \;Sting\, \;Huey Lewis \;and \;John Prine \;among many others\, and made some of the most emotionally restless yet fully accessible music of our time. He&rsquo\;s also appeared on major television shows such as \;Late Night with Conan O&rsquo\;Brien \;and \;Jimmy Kimmel Live\, been the subject of numerous \;National Public Radio \;(NPR) features and charted multiple times on the \;Billboard Top 100 \;and \;Americana Radioi Charts.
\nThis year\, Paul will be releasing an album titled "\;Don&rsquo\;t Let the Devil Ride\,"\; which he describes as &ldquo\;the culmination of my whole life in music\, coming back to my roots.&rdquo\; It marks his first time recording gospel music - featuring guests such as the \;Blind Boys of Alabama\, \;the McCrary Sisters\, and \;Preservation Hall Horns \;- and his creation of a body of strikingly original songs that address the foibles of human relationships without necessarily favoring the sacred over the profane.
