Paul Cauthen Announces Return to The Wilma in 2024

Neotraditional/alt-country artist, Paul Cauthen, is headed back to Missoula for a live concert at The Wilma on October 28, 2024.

Nicknamed Big Velvet for his distinctive baritone voice, Paul Cauthen takes alternative country music and splices it with a touch of swaggerous funk — both in sound and attitude. Listen to his hit song “Cocaine Country Dancing,” off his 2019 album, Room 41, and you’ll get a fun sample of Cauthen’s sound.

His 2022 album release, Country Coming Downis filled with irreverent songs like (expletives incoming)… “Country as Fuck,” “Fuck You Money,” and “Country Clubbin‘.” Holler.Country wrote “It’s safe to assume that most have never heard anything in country, or in any other genre for that matter, quite like Country Coming Down.”

Cauthen released the singles “Black on Black” and “Hot Damn” earlier this year and just released his latest single “Sweetheart From The Trailer Park.” His forthcoming album Black on Black is slated to drop on October 25th, right before the show in Missoula!

The last time Cauthen came through Montana, he easily sold out his shows at The Wilma and ELM (photos). Don’t miss out this time around — get your tickets ASAP!

About Paul Cauthen

Paul Cauthen is a true force of nature. His ability to captivate audiences with his soulful sound and larger-than-life personality has become lore amongst those that have witnessed it. Also doesn’t hurt to have a generational set of pipes to top it all off.

Hailing from East Texas, Cauthen embodies the spirit of the Lone Star State, earning a reputation for doing things his own way. Born into a family of preachers, Cauthen’s upbringing heavily influences his deep-rooted connection to music. With a voice that resonates with raw emotion, he aims to transport listeners, inviting them on a journey through love, heartbreak, and the pursuit of personal freedom. Cauthen’s journey has been one of resilience, perseverance and sheer independence. Turning down major label deals at various points in his career, Cauthen has valued forging his own path and betting on himself over all else.

With multiple releases this year including the genre bending Hometeam and raucous Wild Man, Cauthen has continued to explore new sonic territory fearlessly, while unapologetically defying expectations and creating music that resists categorization.

As he embarks on the This Road I’m On Tour, his biggest headline tour to date, Cauthen brings his long time live band, the Hot Grease Fire, and a collection of hits and new tracks begging to be played for his hungry audiences. He also brings his trademark dance moves, so make sure you’re ready to get down if you come to a Paul Cauthen show.
