Paul Burch Live! December 14, 2007

Soon after moving to Nashville in the early 90's, Paul Burch began performing downtown in the vacant honky tonks, once home to Music City's heady nightlife. Forming the WPA Ballclub, Burch took up a year-long residency at the famed Tootsie's Orchid Lounge (behind the Ryman Auditorium and the informal "green room" to the Opry.) The bands marathon shows quickly attracted a following and provided a much needed bromide to the other goings on over at Music Row.

Paul Burch's works are those of thoughtful eloquence and spirited storytelling. A veteran of Nashville's vibrant Lower Broadway scene in the mid-90's--where talent was measured not my millions of units shilled but by dollar bills crammed into the tip jar or taped to the stage. Paul has recorded with everyone from R&B great Candi Staton, to southern raconteurs Vic Chesnutt and Ryan Adams.
