Motivated to make a change after serving time in prison for forgery, credit card abuse and burglary, SaulPaul discovered music as a way to inspire young people and help them avoid his path. The three-time Grammy-nominated performer calls himself “the musician with a message.” Our Student Reporting Labs caught up with him as part of our arts and culture series, CANVAS.
Love of bluegrass brought owners of Lockhart’s Fiddler’s Green Music Shop together

This video was produced by Anastasiia Grygorieva at Rouse High School in Leander, Texas in collaboration with the PBS NewsHour Student Reporting Labs.
