The Anthony Paule Soul Orchestra featuring Willy Jordan
Based out of San Francisco, California, The Anthony Paule Soul Orchestra, was founded in 2007, by guitarist/songwriter Anthony Paule. Inspired by authentic Soul and Blues recordings of the ‘60s and ‘70s, this dramatic horn driven extravagant act took shape. Known for having great, authentic singers, APSO has had the honor of backing many wonderful singers! Now the torch has been passed to the great two time GRAMMY nominated Willy Jordan. Having worked with Elvin Bishop’s Big Fun Trio (which garnered him two Grammy Award nominations), John Lee Hooker among others, Willy holds court from a throne previously occupied by Wee Willie Walker, Frank Bey, and Terrie Odabi. Jordan’s commanding vocals and unpretentious stage presence, give audiences an honest, fresh, heartfelt experience.
In addition we have backed up a number of legendary artists such as Carla Thomas, George McCrae, Wendy Moten, Spencer Wiggins, Percy Wigigins, Bernard Purdy, Willie Hightower, and many others.
