paul baribeau - selftitled

Paul Baribeau is a solo folk artist who rips it up like no other. his simple lyrics and driving guitar really capture his emotions and really makes you understand what he is trying to express. his songs range from love songs, to his ode to his favorite local band growing up, to the struggles of life. i met this fine gentleman two times and both times he was so kind and hugged me with his grizzly beard and a smile on his face. one of my favorite songs of all time is "never get to know" which talks about the struggles of caring for people who you love and being hurt by them but doing your best to never let them down, its powerful and brings tears to my eyes. this shit owns.
