Description:
The Pulaski Theatre welcomes Ted Russell Kamp to the stage along with opening act Cliff Beach on Saturday, October 20th.
A workingman’s musician with a thorough grasp of his craft, Ted Russell Kamp comes into his own as a solo artist and songwriter of note with Poor Man’s Paradise. Poor Man’s Paradise is a juicy gumbo of country, Southern-fried rock and soul in the style of Kamp’s lifelong inspirations J.J. Cale, The Band, and Kris Kristofferson. Kamp wrote or co-wrote all 11 songs, with a storyteller’s flair for offbeat characters, interesting turns of phrase and a sense of realism that sometimes belies an uncommon circumstance.
Kamp discovered rich source material in his travels as longtime bassist for Shooter Jennings, with whom he tours regularly. Colorful regional colloquialisms overheard at truck stops and biker festivals pop up in revealing couplets, while fans, musicians, waitresses, desk clerks and others he’s encountered along the road inspire characters like the nostalgic bartender in “Player Piano” and the “poor man” of the title track (co-written with Grammy-winner Chris Tompkins), looking for paradise in the arms of a wayward lover.
“We all go through similar things in life,” he muses. “That’s one of the reasons I relate to songwriting: telling these stories can be very personal and very universal at the same time.”
