Paul Jefferson is a singer, songwriter, producer and recording artist who originally hails from the
hills of Woodside, CA but has been based in Nashville Tennessee for the past 3 decades. Early in his
career, Paul landed the leading role of Hank Williams in the San Jose production of ‘Lost Highway’
which ran for 8 consecutive weeks. Paul made the move to Nashville and signed with Almo sounds
Records in 1996 releasing his debut album including the top 40 single ‘Check Please’. That same year
Paul enjoyed success as a songwriter with this song ‘That’s As Close As I’ll Get To Loving You’
recorded by Aaron Tippin, reaching the number one spot on the Billboard country charts.
Paul’s songwriting accolades also include cuts by Little Texas, Buddy Jewell, Exile and the song
‘You’re Not My God’ co-written with Keith Urban for his multi platinum ‘Golden Roads’ album. Paul's
latest musical venture goes back to his country roots to honor his hero Hank Williams Sr. with the
show ‘Hank Lives’. This is not your everyday theatrical tribute concert. It is a raw and revealing,
unrequited love affair, from the living hit songwriter, Paul Jefferson, to his historically
significant idol, Hank Williams Sr. The audience will be captivated by stories and classic songs of
the late Hank Sr as well as a few poignant originals from Jefferson, intertwined with multimedia
images as well. This presentation moves from intimately speculative to heart achingly sad to
toe-tapping fun! A must see for any traditional or modern day country fan!!!!!
