"They say the god of the wind lives / in a house made of straw." - Paleo, from "Hello & Behold" off A View Of The Sky
For the last 5 years, living in a car, booking his own shows, producing all his own music, Paleo has become something of a mantlepiece in the American house show circuit. His tour history is a database for kindred spirits: over 700 shows across the US, about 150 a year since 2005. Daytrotter's Sean Moeller playfully crowned him their "Poet Laureate" in 2007.
Four years of hard work!This month of May we celebrated four years on the air. We continue working on the dissemination of this wonderful instrument, thank you for participating in our story!
Paleo recorded a song every day for a whole year. Hear them at his website http://www.paleo.ws/

GCG the morning of the flood, it was the morning linda died GCG while i was busy cutting diamonds with the corners of my life GCG we drew a full house on the river it was erased before our eyes GCG we know although things last forever they must change their shape sometimes
GCG i am safe & i am sorry in the evergreens at night GCG & i am looking through your window i am staring at your mind AmG when linda dies and linda dies and linda dies
GCG it seems to me forever i've been waiting in this tree GCG & so i go now by goliath i'm my favorite enemy GCG we are careless with our wishing with the truths we tell through teeth GCG you be careful what you pay for when the soul is your receipt GCG they are boarding up the phone; they are boarding up their eyes GCG you will board open your hands; i will board the kites of time GCG deliver me tomorrow care of sleep, my moving boat, GCG but it can take me only so far, only so far yet to go AmG when linda dies and linda dies and linda dies
GCG we have cut through most of georgia, not 200 miles to go GCG we are all buried in the jordan turns our spirits white like snow GCG there is a door within its palm it will not hit us where we go
*note He adds a note to the G chord each time, like this: (d is down strum, u is up)
