This Song: St. Paul and the Broken Bones

By: admin

There’s no denying that St. Paul and the Broken Bones are full of soul, and in this episode you get a little taste of where it all came from. From a cappella versions of “Amazing Grace”, to Otis Redding and Miles Davis, the Alabama-based bands depth of spirit is influenced by passionate, emotional music. “Being able to draw emotions out of yourself and people is a very powerful thing,” says lead singer Paul Janeway, “It’s what we do for a living, and we love doing it.”
