Reviews

"[Paul and Storm] attacked with both high and low humor. There were scatalogical laughs aplenty...but a lot of the fun sprang from the duo's energetic, quick-witted harmony vocals."
- The Washington Post, September 8, 2004

"The pair kept the audience off guard and occasionally off their seats with laughter."
- Soundcheck Magazine, July, 2004

"I laughed so hard that I nearly fell out of my chair…like a standup act by guys with instruments..Check them out, because they’re already hilarious and will only get better from here."
Bethlehem Daily Star

"Two genuinely funny people...Paul and Storm are obvious[ly] cool nerds (the good kind), and their brand of humor should appeal to people that actually have healthy senses of humor."
- Blogcritics.org, August, 2004

   About Paul and Storm
"Paul and Storm's music evokes both tears and fits of laughter – at the same time" -- Washington Post Express

Paul Sabourin and Greg "Storm" DiCostanzo have been writing and performing original funny music together for a long, long time. They hope their music will make you laugh and feel good for a little while, and believe that this aim is noble, right and just.

Millions are familiar with Paul and Storm and their material from the years they spent as one-half of the widely acclaimed a cappella band Da Vinci's Notebook. Bravely picking up instruments in 2004, Paul and Storm continue to write original material as they continue to appear in clubs and at major festivals across the country.

No subject is sacred to this energetic pair as they keep audiences laughing with their humorous and satirical original songs. Paul and Storm’s songs are as catchy and musically interesting as they are funny, and in live performance their harmonies draw comparisons to the Everly Brothers, while their stage presence evokes the Barenaked Ladies.

All of their music is available from their website (www.paulandstorm.com) in CD format or as downloadable mp3's.

Paul and Storm's music is often heard on the "Bob and Tom" syndicated morning radio show, and has been heard on “The Drew Carey Show”, Comedy Central, XM Satellite Radio's "Dr. Demento" show, and on the popular web cartoon site Homestarrunner.com.

Greg "Storm" DiCostanzo proudly plays Martin guitars.

Gumbo Pants CD

Gumbo Pants

Gumbo Pants is filled with thirty (30) tracks’ worth of yummy crap: old favorites that we finally put on disc (The Captain’s Wife’s Lament); new rockin’ awesomeness written especially for you (Your Town); a gospel choir singing about chicken nuggets (Nugget Man); inappropriate Schoolhouse Rock-style educational material (Count to Ten); more rejected commercial jingles; a whole slew of songs that are one sentence long; and the answer to the oft-asked question of what it would sound like if James Taylor were on fire (If James Taylor Were on Fire).

News to Us

A compilation of songs written for the Bob & Tom morning radio show, based on or inspired by the news from the week the song was written. Includes the popular hits "Strip Club Daddy", "Barry Bonds Press Conference - The Musical", "John Mellencamp's 'Theme from 24'", "Ten-Finger Johnny", "Your Love Is", and "Hip-Shop", the barbershop-rap extravaganza by world-renowned quartet the BarryTones. Buy it or we'll eat your dog!

Opening Band

The original hotness: thirty-two (count 'em, 32) tracks of Paul and Storm bringin' the funny. Includes director commentaries by the artists.

Hello Paul and Storm!

I have missed your presence from my inbox. For some reason, whatever email address I try to send things from (despite having joined MOST of them to your email group), NOTHING WORKS. I shall persevere... I shall persevere. Anyway, I hope that both of you are very well indeed and that the creative juices are flowly freely down your collective chin.

Cheers,
Pam in Austraaaaaylia.

Mind-blowing show in Ann Arbor tonight! My wife and I drove from Grand Rapids (the other side of the state) just to see your show. We were not disappointed. In fact, it may have been the time we've had at a concert in many years. Please come back to Michigan soon.
You guys are amazing!
