Formed in Birmingham in 2011, St. Paul & The Broken Bones have earned a global reputation for electrifying live performances and the impassioned, gospel‑charged vocals of frontman Paul Janeway. The group features Jesse Phillips (bass), Browan Lollar (guitar), Kevin Leon (drums), Al Gamble (keyboards), Allen Branstetter (trumpet), Chad Fisher (trombone), and Amari Ansari (saxophone) a lineup whose chemistry and intensity have become the band’s signature.
Their 2025 self‑titled sixth album signalled a creative renewal, blending soulful, song‑focused roots with adventurous psych‑funk textures, gospel balladry, and cinematic rock flourishes. Recorded at the legendary FAME Studios and produced by Eg White (Adele, Celine Dion), the record showcases the band’s evolution through standout tracks like ‘Sushi and Coca-Cola’ and ‘Going Back’, pairing introspection with a deepened musical identity.
Across their career, St. Paul & The Broken Bones have shared stages with The Rolling Stones, Lizzo, and Black Pumas, and delivered show‑stopping performances at Coachella, Glastonbury, Lollapalooza, and Bonnaroo. Even Sir Elton John took notice, inviting them to perform at his famed Oscar party — a testament to their explosive live presence and genre‑blurring appeal.
May 2027 tour promises a powerful fusion of soul, rock & roll, R&B, and the raw emotional force that has made St. Paul & The Broken Bones one of the most compelling live acts of the past decade.
