Paul Thorn at The Mint July 28

Southern singer/songwriter Paul Thorn and his band to perform songs from his new album ‘Pimps and Preachers’ (Perpetual Obscurity Records).

Paul Thorn has achieved his highest position ever on the Billboard Top 200 albums chart with his new album debuting at #83. Thorn grew up in a Pentecostal church where his father was actually the preacher. Thorn's uncle was a former pimp, and Paul's relationship with the two of them gave rise to the title track on the new album. Thorn himself was a blue-collar worker before he became a full-time musician, and is a powerful performer who The San Francisco Chronicle calls "Springsteen from Mississippi."
