I had the pleasure tonight to go see Neanderpaul perform in Jackson TN. He played at the Green Frog Coffee Company on the courthouse square. This venue is a former Starbucks and is still a coffee shop with food.
For those who dont know Neanderpaul. He is a one man band, he uses sample loops to build up songs. Ive never really done much of this so I wanted to go and see what he was doing and plus after conversing on here with Paul for the past couple of years I wanted to meet a fellow musician who is out there playing live. Paul has played 9 shows in the last couple of weeks and has a few more before he returns home to VA. I think hes been all the way to TX and had played Little Rock Ark the night before. I have to say Im kind of jealous of him just getting on the road and doing what he does.
For anyone that reads any of my post. you know that Im big on getting out there and playing music live. Its not going to happen behind your computor you have to get out there to see what youve got.
Paul plays a wide range of music, I heard Hendrix, U2 and Elvis to mention a few covers he did along with some realy nice original numbers. What Paul does is start with one rythym instrument and play thru a few bars of music, recording it into a loop. He then picks up another instrument and adds a second instrument and so on and so on. He then sings to it, even recording vocal lines and singing harmony over his own lines. I was very impressed with his commnd of this style of playing. Paul put on a 2 hour show that had him playing drums, bass, guitar and piano. The thing that impressed me most was Pauls voice. He has excellent range and great control of his pitch.
If any other bandmixers are anywhere close to Pauls travels I just recomend that you go see him. It was a little over an hour drive for me, but I would have driven further to see Paul perform live.
Below are a few pictures to check out.
Paul when you see this Thanks for Inviting me and a big Thanks for Entertaining me and my daughter. Great Show!!!
