Paul McMahon

Paul McMahon is a legendary singer-songwriter from Woodstock. His sometimes mindblowing lyrics weave the tale of a Goddess in all worshipper’s journey through time. Rarely venturing far from Woodstock, he completed his first tour of 4 cities just before Covid’s appearance in 2020. It was organized by GoodFlavor tapes who also recorded an album slated for release in the near future. A survivor of the No Wave scene, he played in Daily Life with Barbara Ess and Glenn Branca. He has released ten albums and played at the Metropolitan Museum, CBGB’s, Knitting Factory, Tinker Street Cafe, the Lake, BSP, the Colony, Zadocks, SXSW and the Kitchen. He was the first to book the Knitting Factory in the 80s, started the Dharmaware Cafe, an acoustic music venue in the 90s and since 2007 runs the Mothership, an ‘Everything Center’ in Woodstock.

McMahon performs solo with an acoustic guitar. He also often performs with Eva Bublick. In addition he performs as the Rock’n’Roll Therapist, making up instant songs to cure people’s problems.
