Monday 3/3: Paul Thorn – Life is Just a Vapor

The former boxer-turned-singer/songwriter has his 14^th album out now, and it’s about growing older: turning 60, to be specific. “Every song on this album, there’s a message in it of some sort about how to live life,” he says. His messages include enjoying life’s pleasures, slowing down, keeping a sense of humor, and other tricks to stay happy. As he sings in his song “Chicken Wing,” “I’m in the winter of my life / I love my dog, I like my wife / I wash the dishes, I sweep the floor / I keep a 12-gauge behind the door.” Paul’s live shows are known for their passion, storytelling, and wit, and he’ll be at the Reeves Theater in Elkin, NC on March 28^th and The Don Gibson Theatre in Shelby on the 29^th.
