Paul Thorn is a unique, gifted singer-songwriter with a colorful past whose live shows are mesmerizing and recorded material is consistently critically acclaimed. Pimps and Preachers is Paul Thorn at his best, consisting of a bunch of witty and heartfelt songs, most based on personal experiences. And this time, he brings a catchy title track that explores his relationship with the two most influential men in his life -- his father the Pentecostal preacher and his uncle the pimp! Top it off with Paul's hand-drawn album cover, and you have some 'hooks' to work with.
'That little boy represents me,' says Thorn. 'I'm in the church group but my eyes are looking back to the street where all the sin is going on. It shows me being intrigued by the broad world. That's why I made this my album cover: It describes who I am.'
