Songs and Stories: An Intimate Evening with Paul Young
Paul Young broke into the big time 40 years ago when No Parlez went to number one and spawned iconic hits like Wherever I Lay My Hat (That’s My Home). More success followed with the Number 1 album The Secret of Association and the worldwide hit Every Time You Go Away, not forgetting an appearance at Live Aid and more. Paul sustained that success – while having fun in his tex-mex band, Los Pacaminos.
Now, he’s looking back during these intimate shows that combine conversation and acoustic versions of songs. Paul is meeting fans, singing songs, and telling stories about his incredible career. It’s time to revel in the classic hits and learn the stories behind them in this intimate show.
