Friday, October 4, 7:30 pm (doors at 6:30)

I'm excited be playing Friday, October 4 at Seattle's Royal Room, an elegant venue featuring a quiet listening-room environment.

My show last year in Seattle kickstarted a spring and summer of live shows in the US and Europe. It taught me that, in fact, I do love playing live — as long as it's in the right environment. Kitt has worked hard to find the perfect room in which I can share the songs and stories of my heart with you, and I can't wait.

With luck, this show will include a VERY SPECIAL GUEST PERFORMER. So let's all keep our fingers crossed.

There are two ticket options:

Via the Venue ($30 plus fees)

or

The VIP Brunch ($100 - via Paypal, credit card or debit card). This includes one ticket to the show, as well as an invitation to brunch the next day at 11:00 am in Issaquah. There I will be available for more extended conversations and to take pictures. I'll play a song without the dreaded mediation of a microphone, and do a Q&A — so bring your burning questions about band history, personal history, songs, songwriting, or whatever you want. Limited to 20 seats (show ticket and Issaquah address will be sent to you week of show).

The entire point of the shows I've been playing has been to connect with you in a deeper way. Beyond the shows themselves, the VIP brunch is the best way I can imagine for us to hang out together. Looking forward to it!

Thank you for supporting my work all these years, and for your continuing support.

Thanks especially to the amazing crew in Seattle — Jim, Kitt, Michael (+ Trish) and the rest of you — for making this magic happen.

All my love!

Paul

PS, While your kids may love listening to Black Lab in the back seat, experience has shown that they don't love sitting through a long show of acoustic versions interspersed with stories about love and death that feature four-letter words. So unless they're (a mature) 13 years old or more, we ask that you please attend without them. Thank you!
