CRITIC’S PICK: St. Paul and the Broken Bones
Recommended by Hal Horowitz as part of Creative Loafing’s May 2026 Critic’s Picks
Fri., May 8
St. Paul and the Broken Bones
Brother Wallace, The Eastern
Paul Janeway has lent his powerful blue-eyed soul pipes leading Alabama’s Broken Bones for over a decade. The band’s music has often strayed from its ‘60s Memphis R&B roots into more psychedelic areas that were interesting, but lost some of the natural grit and guts of their earlier approach. The ship was righted with last year’s self-titled album which found them returning to those tougher Southern roots with songs that were some of the best they had written. Between the horns and Janeway’s magnetic stage presence, these guys connect live and deliver impassioned shows. Arrive early for rootsy soulman Brother Wallace whose sweet, retro Motown-styled pop-soul from his new Electric Love debut makes a great double bill. — Hal Horowitz
