While We Were Gone, captures Paul and his quartet in their natural environment, live on stage. The album, recorded live at the Soapbox Gallery in Brooklyn (NY), is a double album featuring 23 songs drawn from Jost’s live repertoire. The hallmark of Jost’s appeal is his extraordinary ability to connect with his listeners on an emotional level. He is a passionate storyteller who interprets lyrics and melodies in ways that reveal the beating heart within a song. He says, “I like to present songs in ways that perhaps no one has heard before. It’s not that I’m just trying to be different, but I have my own perspectives that I try to present truthfully and honestly.”

The live recordings on this album are soulful and intimate. It is a journey into the profound, elegant, and moral universe that Jost inhabits.
