  • Bio

    .. .."One of the best instrumentalists I've ever worked with.." .. ~Bobby Caldwell Patrick is one of those extraordinary performers who combine raw talent, and energy with a singular ability to captivate an audience with his charm, sincerity and pure magnetism. His focus as a songwriter and performing artist is "Old School" R&B, Soul. He combines the influences of Funk, Soul, R&B, and a flavor of Jazz to create his own unique sound as a performer and a songwriter. Born in Jackson, Mississippi, Patrick began paying his dues by playing roadhouse music as a teenager in the rural south when he heard the evocative sounds of James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles, and Wilton Felder, of the Crusaders. He immersed himself in the music of these great artists and began to discover his own sound as both a musician and performer. In the eighties his father, a high school science teacher, took the family to Portland, Oregon. Once there, Patrick's playing and singing were developing into a formidable career, which began at the early age of 16. Although having lived in the NW, Patrick found a way to infuse his southern roots and influences into his development as a musician, songwriter and performer. Patrick accepted early on in his career, in the 90's, the opportunity to perform and tour with Concord Recording Artist & GRAMMY -winner Diane Schuur. In addition to touring with Ms. Schuur, he recently joined legendary R&B vocalists Bobby Caldwell and Gino Vannelli to tour worldwide. Patrick has been honored with numerous awards starting with an acclaimed best soloist performance at the Lionel Hampton Jazz Festival, resulting in a performance with Lionel Hampton. He has won 3 Muddy awards voted on by the NW music community, and recently was a finalist in the Rockstar Mix It Up contest. In addition, to his music based awards, Patrick's production company was given the Spirit of Portland & the Caring Heart award for his contributions giving back to the community. In 1996 and 1997 Patrick was invited to perform at the White House during the holiday Congressional VIP Tours and was in attendance at "The Peace on Earth Celebration," leading to a meeting with President Clinton. Patrick has been solidly and consistently recognized by his peers and community as a world class talent. Over the past few years Patrick has been focusing on his own recording career as both a songwriter and performer. He recently completed five studio albums and produced an award winning show "Let The Good Times Roll, A Tribute To Ray Charles." A Tribute To Ray Charles, debuted at the 2005 Safeway Waterfront Blues Festival and the 15 piece big band All-star group released a CD produced by Lamb at the 2006 festival during the tributes encore performance. The tribute has received stellar reviews both regionally and nationally, and the show opened the 2007-08 Oregon Symphony Pops season. Patrick completed work on his latest solo project, 'Soul Of A Free Man' which was released, in Spring 2007. Patrick's new solo vocal CD bridges together his love of Funk, "Old School" R&B, Soul, Jazz and his southern roots. This CD was co-written with long time friend, singer-songwriter Lee Garrett, whose songwriting credits include 'Sign Sealed Delivered,' 'Isn't She Lovely,' 'I Just Called To Say I Love You' and more! In addition to these two projects Patrick finished work on a vocal duet and instrumental CD with nine-time Emmy award winning producer John Henry, and three-time Emmy nominated singer songwriter Patsy Meyer. This project was released in late Spring of 2007. Patrick's final release in 2007 was with Michael Allen Harrison titled "At Midnight." Patrick has appeared on other recordings with Gino Vannelli, Jeff Lorber, Tom Grant, Eddie Martinez, Dave Weckel, Nathan East, Ricky Lawson, 'Little John' Roberts, Alex Al, Bill Cunliffe, Tony Madian, Curt Bisquera, Herman Jackson, Mel Brown, Marlon McClain, Nate Phillips, The Crazy 8's, George Mitchell, Dan Balmer, Paul deLay, John Raymond, Paul Jackson Jr., Tony Gable, and many others. Patrick also demonstrates a deep sense of community awareness and civic responsibility. He has performed for numerous fund- raisers to raise consciousness about the loss of funding for the arts in public schools. In addition, he has been involved with major civic efforts to raise money for the America Diabetes Association, Oregon Food Bank, the American Cancer Society, Doernbecher Children's Hospital, The Christie School, ALS Association of Oregon and SW Washington. One can't help but be moved by the huge heart of this young man as it comes though in his civic awareness...and in his exuberant energy to entertain and uplift people.

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT MITT ROMNEY'S AMERICA ...

    "I'm not concerned about the very poor."

    "Corporations are people."

    "My job is not to worry about those people.  I’ll never
    convince them they should take personal responsibility
    and care for their lives."

    ~ Mitt Romney

    IF A FREE SOCIETY CANNOT HELP THE MANY WHO ARE

    POOR, IT CANNOT SAVE THE FEW WHO ARE RICH!

    Ask Yourself - Have You Been KIND TODAY Patrick?
     

    I AM RECORDING A NEW ALBUM THIS MONTH - WATCH FOR IT @ www.RichardHarrisLive.com

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT KINDNESS ...

    One Million Acts Of Kindness is a goal. A goal for each person to individually perform One Million Acts Of Kindness in their lifetime. Can you imagine a greater goal for one's life?

    Most of us think that changing the world is impossible. The world is too big…too many people in it…too many problems to solve. Do you often feel this way? While it’s understandable, be assured that it is not true!

    NO ACT OF KINDNESS ~ HOWEVER SMALL IS EVER
    WASTED!  HOW MANY LIVES CAN WE CHANGE IF WE
    PRACTICE KINDNESS EVERY DAY?

    Only WE Can STOP WORLD HUNGER Patrick!
     

    I AM RECORDING A NEW ALBUM THIS SUMMER - WATCH FOR IT @ www.RichardHarrisLive.com

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT WORLD HUNGER ...

    Here is some FOOD FOR THOUGHT ~

    > Every 3.6 seconds a person dies of HUNGER

    > 75% of them are CHILDREN

    > 30 million people a year DIE OF HUNGER

    > HUNGER is the world's #1 Health Risk ~ It kills more
       people every year than AIDS, malaria, and TB
       combined

    > 1 in 7 people in the world will go to bed hungry tonight

    > 925 million people do not have enough to eat and
       98% of them live in developing countries  

    > In the U.S. alone, we spend 5 times the amount each
       year it would take to feed the world's hungry on WEIGHT
       LOSS PROGRAMS

    With LOVE, RESPECT, and PEACE my friend,

    How RICH are you Patrick?
     

    I AM RECORDING A NEW ALBUM THIS SUMMER - WATCH FOR IT @ www.RichardHarrisLive.com

    TODAY'S THOUGHT IS ABOUT FEELING RICH ...

    "It is easy to FEEL RICH any time ...

    Just COUNT all the things you have THAT MONEY

    CAN'T BUY."

    ~ Kevin Eikenberry

    THERE IS NO POINT IN GETTING RICH IF WE LOSE

    OUR SOUL ALONG THE WAY!  CELEBRATE THE

    RICHNESS OF THINGS MONEY CAN'T BUY!
