When it comes to Southern songwriter tours, it might not get more appropriate than this bill headlined by Tupelo’s very own boxer-songwriter Paul Thorn and Carencro’s gravel voiced soul-pop troubadour Marc Broussard.

Together the fellas have half-a-century’s worth of recorded music under their belts. Broussard even arrives in support of his new album in seven years, Time is a Thief, produced by Grammy-winning (Eric Krasno) and nominated producers (Jeremy Most) who’ve worked with the likes of Soulive, Lettuce and Emily King.

Tickets to see Paul Thorn and Marc Broussard play Ruth Eckerd Hall in Clearwater on Thursday, Jan. 23 are still available and start at $28.75.
