The Cut - Stage • Studio • Restaurant • Bar

Besides headlining A-List comedy clubs for almost forty years, Paul has also opened for over sixty internationally known recording acts including Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, Tom Jones, Tony Bennett, The Beach Boys, Chicago, The Four Tops, The Temptations, The Doobie Brothers, Jerry Lee Lewis, Lyle Lovett, and George Carlin, and has performed in many famed entertainment venues ranging from the legendary Friar's Club and the main ballroom of New York City's Waldorf Astoria, to the main showroom at Harrah's Casino and Caesar's Palace.
Paul co-starred in the popular stand-up comedy movie The Godfathers of Comedy on Showtime, and is also the author of six hilarious books that have won numerous literary awards.
Carolyn Plummer. God help us. Some comics rely on the monumental events of the day or the faux pas of the rich and famous. Not Carolyn. Carolyn pulls material from the hum-drum, day-to-day monotony of the life of everyman; and she does it well. To Carolyn the monumental is easy... it's our existence that's so hard, yet so ridiculous. Some women look in the mirror and complain that they aren't pretty enough, not rich enough, not young enough. Carolyn gives her reflection the finger.

Tanya Donelly first emerged in the indie-rock landscape in the early 1980s, co-founding&nbsp;Throwing Muses&nbsp;(with stepsister Kristin Hersh), then later co-forming&nbsp;The Breeders, before leading her own band&nbsp;Belly&nbsp;in the 1990s. With&nbsp;Belly&nbsp;she had her biggest commercial breakthrough, notably with the single&nbsp;“Feed the Tree”, earning critical acclaim and a Grammy nomination.&nbsp;
After that success, Tanya embarked on a solo career marked by lyrical richness, melodic innovation, and a shifting musical palette that embraces folk, country, ambient, and indie pop textures. Her solo debut,&nbsp;Lovesongs for Underdogs&nbsp;(1997), established her distinct songwriting voice outside of her band projects.
This Hungry Life&nbsp;(originally released in 2006) is a live album recorded in a unique intimate setting — a closed hotel in Bellows Falls, Vermont — featuring largely new material, plus a few covers and re-imagined tracks. The album reflects maturity in both voice and subject matter: themes of home, family, identity, and the passage of time are woven through in her warm vocals and intimate performance style, with the live setting giving the songs immediacy and connection.&nbsp;
Marking the 20th anniversary of&nbsp;This Hungry Life&nbsp;offers a chance to revisit her work at this pivotal moment: affirming her legacy in indie rock; celebrating her evolution as an artist who has never stopped refining her craft; and presenting&nbsp;This Hungry Life&nbsp;not just as a document of a live show but as a milestone in her ongoing journey — both musically and personally.
The Guardian: “Recorded live in a disused Vermont hotel,&nbsp;Donelly’s vocal, full of personality, soars brightly over the audience and fills you with affection for hearth and for home.”&nbsp;The Guardian
