This is the fourth time I have seen Paul . I have seen him in Arizona, New York State, Connecticut and now New Jersey. This show was suppose to be Thorn and Polk, but Was a solo show due to illness. Once again Paul Thorn did not disappoint. Great show nice venue
While not well known, Paul Thorn is a fantastic performer and his stories and songs are so down to earth and close to the heart. I could see him once a month forever and enjoy each and every one. I love his small venues and his personal upfront contact with the audience. Excellent!
Beautiful theater, good sound and not a bad seat in the house. Paul Thorn was as usual, very warm and personable. He shared some jokes and stories which we love. But most of all Paul's songs really tell a story and the audience relates to them. Had a great night.
Great songwriter. Even better storyteller. Can relate to this southern man’s life trials and adventures.
We discovered Paul about 9 years ago. We have been to multiple performances. It is always a treat to see him. He connects so well with the audience; at the end of the concert, you swear he is your best friend. He introduces his songs with stories about his past. I imagine they are semi true, slightly embellished. But it gives you a view into his background growing up as PK with his dad being a Church of God preacher. The music is southern rock with a hint of gospel. If you are from the south the songs speak to your heritage.
Paul Thorn is an awesome performer! He is funny, kind and heart warming. His music is great for lifting your spirits. We enjoyed the show very much. Can't wait for next year!!
We saw Paul Thorn at the Bijou Theater in Knoxville, TN. This was not the first I had seen him, but it was the first for my friend. His is just a terrific live show! Paul is an engaging entertainer, his songs are fun and soulful, and his band is just perfect. I love how he shines a light on people who not everyone considers heroes. But in his music and the passion of his performance, they are certainly heroes. We both left with big smiles on our faces.
Paul is talented and funny, moving, and great music
Love Paul Thorn. Love the Bijou. But somehow the combination of the two did not result in a happy sound mix. When Paul played and sang without the band, the sound was excellent, but when the band kicked in, it was muddy and overpowered Paul’s vocals. Disappointing.
I bought the tickets from a friend and so glad I did! What a show! Paul Thorn is an exceptional songwriter, entertainer, and overall person. I’m definitely a fan now. His band is talented as well and they work so well together. We will definitely be seeing him and his band again.
