The road to fame for hipster, Bohemian, Americana singer/songwriter/poet extraordinaire, Patrick Weathers, has been full of detours. The prodigal son of Laurel, Mississippi and French Quarter barrooms has opened for the Meters, jammed with Bob Dylan, written and performed on Saturday Night Live and National Lampoon, studied acting under Lee Strasburg, swapped late nights stories with Truman Capote and Robin Williams at Studio 54, collaborated with Francis Ford Coppola in Hollywood and played Elvis on Broadway. His careers as author, singer/songwriter, actor and comedian have taken him from New Orleans to NY to LA and back again. Weathers began honing his resonant, multifaceted voice, ranging from Dylanesque to Johnny Cash depths, during his early years of carousing in New Orleans where he opened for such acts as Professor Longhair. Later, he moved to New York where he studied at the Actors' Studio with Lee Strasberg while working nights at Studio 54. Within a year Patrick joined the cast of "Saturday Night Live". His portrayal of a young Dylan at Woody Guthrie's deathbed with the late David Carradine is considered one of the classic sketches in the history of SNL. Weathers went on to star in the Broadway production of "Rock'n'Roll: The First 5,000 Years" where he played out wicked imitations of Elvis, Dylan, Lou Reed, Levon Helm and others. Later, Patrick toured in "Elvis: An American Musical" and starred in Sandra Bullock's production of "Velvet Elvis" in Hollywood. While a regular contributing editor to "The National Lampoon", Weathers performed in Lampoon stage shows and appeared in various other film and stage projects. His voice (or voices!) became familiar on New York-based radio comedy shows (including The Fire Sign Theatre). After a long break from acting, Patrick performed featured roles in two markedly different films earlier this year: "Leonie", a period piece with Emily Mortimer, and "Inventing Adam", a romantic comedy with Ray Wise. Throughout it all, Weathers continued to write and sing his own songs. Raised on The King and Hank Williams-style Country, Patrick Weathers spins brilliant yarns of rich folks, po' folks, back roads, barrooms, tales of love gone wrong, resigned loss and survival. Like the best works of Guy Clark, Jimmy Buffet and Jerry Jeff Walker, Patrick's songs come alive with heartbreak and humor on both of his national releases on Louisiana Red Hot: "The Queen of Tupelo" and "Hound Dog Diaries".
Hey Buck-a-roo, Hope all is well. Not much going on here. Bob called, he forgot the chords to some of his songs and I had to fax them to him. Must be getting senile. CS
