Calling audibles, Minneapolis singer Paul Metsa triumphs in his 40th anniversary celebration
With the help of friends from throughout his career, the captivating storyteller commemorated his first gig in the Twin Cities.
Minnesota Star Tribune | December 24, 2019
On Monday night, Minneapolis singer-songwriter Paul Metsa seemed almost as discombobulated at the Parkway Theater as the Vikings' offense did at U.S. Bank Stadium.
The difference is that while the Vikes had a playbook that went nowhere, Metsa worked without a setlist yet still managed to triumph. That's because he's a captivating storyteller, whether in song or in conversation, and an adept audible caller, especially when he gets help from his highly skilled musical friends.
