PAUL THORN

Singer/songwriter Paul Thorn’s sound is unique and distinctive, the voice of a man who has walked a long, hot span over dusty Mississippi country roads. His newest CD is A Long Way From Tupelo, a collection of songs which once again illustrates Thorn’s versatility and authentic connection to the music of the Mississippi heartland: blues, country, gospel, rhythm and blues, and rock ‘n’ roll. Thorn excels as a musical storyteller.
