This week on I WAS IN THAT BAND! I sit down with the incomparable Paul Slavens — a true legend of the Denton music scene.

From his groundbreaking work with the genre-bending band Ten Hands to his long-running Monday night residency at Dan’s Silverleaf—where he famously improvised songs on the spot using audience-suggested titles—Paul has carved out a unique space in Texas music history. We talk about his musical journey, his fearless approach to creativity, and what keeps him inspired after all these years. I’ve had the pleasure of making music with Paul over the years and have always admired his wit, talent, and boundless imagination. It was a real treat to have him on the show.
