Paul Baribeau leading a sing-a-long at Transitions Art Gallery Super Sunday at Transitions Art Gallery featuring Paul Baribeau, Super Bobby, Busman’s Holiday, and Flashlights.

As he told the audience at New World, his brother told him watching his set is like watching stand up comedy. And PJ is funny – I mean, hell, he even made a Gin Blossom cover work for him. Most importantly, PJ is a simply a great... Read More
