  • Bio

    FYI - I don't keep this page updated anymore... Please visit me at: www.pattiderosa.com for info and gig schedule! Thanks! ..I'm a singer-songwriter-guitarist living in the Boston area and I play contemporary acoustic folk, peppered with rhythm and spice! Click on VIDEOS in the top left box to see some live shows..Or better yet, go to www.youtube.com/pattiderosa for the latest! My 3rd CD, PACKING MY BAGS (2011) is a live CD that captures the feel and energy of my live shows. It is acoustic and intimate. My 2nd CD, SECRETS AND STORIES, (2007) has a full band and is bursting with the flavors of jazz, R&B, rock, and funk, all grounded in a folk sensibility. The smooth vocals and crisp guitar playing are supported by a stellar cast of musicians including Vance Gilbert on vocals, Billy Novick on clarinet and sax, Lorne Entress on drums, Paul Kochanski on bass, John Curtis on guitar and mandolin, Kristen Miller ..o, Tara Greenblatt on vocals and congas, Pablo Picker on vocals and keyboards, and producer Tom Eaton ..boards, vocals, and percussion. And tthe songwriting is overflowing with passion, insight, and attitude. My first CD, PARADISE, (2005) has received airplay on radio stations across the country and as far aways as the US Virgin Islands and Australia. "A must see artist..." Motif Magazine .. "A honey-warm voice, clear and adventurous guitar work and incisive lyrics are all hallmarks of Patti's work, and they are still only the tip of her talent iceberg. See this musician soon wherever you can..." Vance Gilbert, performer... "A powerful presence...fun, funky, and sizzling!". Tara Greenblatt, performer.. "Patti DeRosa is a gem that stands out in the vast sea of singer-songwriters." Madalyn Sklar, Go Girls Music .. I've shared billing with artists such as Antje Duvekot, Vance Gilbert, Lisa Moscatiello, Terence Martin, Kevin So, and Emma's Revolution (Pat Humphries and Sandy O). I have performed at major events including the Copenhagen Songwriters Festival, the Boston Folk Festival, the Joe Davies Folk Festival, and the Folk Alliance Martin Guitar Showcase. I am a member of Indiegrrls, Go Girls, and RISA (Rhode Island Songwriters Association). ...... ..Myspace Editor.... ..Pimp MySpace.. ....
