Event Details
When it comes to songwriting, less is more, and simplicity is strength. Just ask Paul Thorn, whos spent three decades turning soulful grooves and small syllables into songs that pack a big wallop. Maybe he learned the power of minimalism from his years as a pro boxer; maybe it just comes naturally. But whether hes targeting heads, hearts, hips or the occasional funny bone, he somehow manages to condense large nuggets of wisdom into tight little mantras, the kind embroiderers stitched onto pillows before internet memes existed. Thorns new album, Life is Just A Vapor, contains some beauties: Life is a vapor, lets live it while we can; tough times dont last, but tough people do from Tough Times Dont Last; any mountain up ahead is just a hill (from Old Melodies). Theyre words of advice, comfort, support, encouragement, often meant to uplift, especially in times of struggle.
