For those unfamiliar, Christopher Paul Stelling is a singer/songwriter based out of Brooklyn who is keeping the spirit of great folk storytellers alive. With his dexterous fingerpicking and trusted, well-worn acoustic guitar, Stelling sings in a sort of introspective way where his music takes on a soulful, captivating intimacy -- like a personal confession of some kind to no one else but you.
Stelling recently performed for BreakThru Radio's "Hear and There," a series where a band/artist is filmed in a creative location. BreakThru filmed Stelling performing inside Kensington Stables in New York, right near Prospect Park. As one horse looks on, Stelling erases any thought outside of the moment in which he is performing. It's a beautifully shot piece as we see birds flying and his warm breath in the chill of the air. Also, you really shouldn't miss the last 30 seconds or so of the video for "The Watermelon Song".
