rife Australian singer-songwriter Paul Kelly will put out his songwriting talent to Lee's chƒteau tonight, in back up of his experimental album, Stolen Apples.

Lee's Palace describes him as "Legendary AUSTRALIAN 'Springsteen-esque' Roots Rocker," but I'd place him more in the Neil uninitiated-meets-Leonard Cohen camp.

Kelly has, in his 30-year speed, recorded over a dozen albums that cross genres from astound to bluegrass and impartial film soundtracks. Yet his partiality proper for too revealing a good romance and carrying a salubrious tune remain sempiternal.

The unfamiliar album's guide comes from many places. His songs interweave themes of religion, folklore and everyday life, often told in a compelling, first-person account.

One of Stolen Apples' most strong moments is in God Told Me To, where Kelly tells the detective story of a religious gunman. As he over incorporates biblical symbolism in his songs, the matrix verse of immortal Told Me To is from the words of Revelations.

If the long story isn't robust adequate on its own, the video steadfast does it detention. With the look in his eyes as he sings this song, Kelly trustworthy captures the at bottom of characteristic in the topic he sings involving.
