On 2018's Young Sick Camellia, St. Paul & The Broken Bones expanded their trademark Southern soul sound into new emotional and sonic territory. Produced by Jack Splash (Alicia Keys, Kendrick Lamar), the album sees the Birmingham, Alabama group blending classic brass and gospel-infused vocals with sleek modern production and introspective songwriting. Frontman Paul Janeway uses the record to examine generational divides and his relationship with his father, weaving deeply personal reflections into the band’s dynamic, horn-driven arrangements. Songs shift between exuberant funk workouts and moments of quiet vulnerability, showcasing a group unafraid to evolve while remaining rooted in their rich musical heritage. Young Sick Camellia captures a band in full creative bloom - balancing grit, grace, and groove with timeless Southern soul and forward-thinking vision.
