   About Patti Zlaket
"A beautiful piece of work. Patti's voice is a blend of one part funk, one part soul, washed down with rich harmonies. Get this CD." - Joe C. (Hazy Daze Records, Seattle) On the heels of her first international tour and with the new CD Tunes under her belt, Patti Zlaket is solidifying her place in the singer/songwriter arena. The new batch of songs is a true mixture of the soul, pop, blues and country influences which have always colored her music. Its surprising "out of the box" nature is right in line with the performer, herself. The unscripted, completely natural way in which Patti approaches her audience is equally present in her recordings. And you always get the feeling that she is having fun! Her combination of sweet soulful singing and fiery passion makes Patti Zlaket a consistent force to be reckoned with in contemporary music. In a live setting Patti's energetic humor immediately captivates the crowd. Her spontaneous storytelling has become a signature part of her performances, and whether it's in a coffeehouse or club, one thing is for sure: Patti will leave an audience much differently than she found it. Reminiscent of Carole King, Joni Mitchell, and Laura Nyro, Patti's songwriting takes an honest approach to life and matters of the heart. Her soulful voice and melodic style make a mark on the listener that lingers long after the song has ended, with range and sensitivity that evokes her true connection to the lyric and her determination to draw in the audience. Patti is no stranger to the music world. She began playing the piano at age 7, wrote her first song at age 14, and began writing, performing and doing studio demo work in the Los Angeles area in the early 1990's. In 1994, she co-produced her first collection of music entitled the The Promise, engineered by John Arrias (Barbra Streisand, Bob Seger) and co-produced with Pat Caddick (Danny Ganz, Toto). Hailed as a sophisticated and passionate first offering, The Promise combines solid songwriting with sleek contemporary ballads and a hint of the blues. In 1998, Zlaket put on the producer's hat for the first time with a four song CD entitled Patti Zlaket, a scaled down project that illustrates Patti's talents as both singer and songwriter and displays a warm, acoustic feel that takes in the listener and doesn't let go. Patti's second album, Bliss, released in 2001, features a variety of eclectic material that covers everything from blues to pop, folk to funk, and is some her most interesting work to date. Predominately captured "live," the recordings are refreshing and rare in todays current landscape of highly polished studio albums. In addition to performing, Zlaket's current projects include session work, writing and producing. She has become a regular on the songwriter showcase circuit, playing locally and internationally. Zlaket's music has garnered interest from other writers/performers and she is currently working with award-winning composers from Los Angeles to Nashville.

I had such a great time at the Folkey Monkey! You are just wonderful. Btw, I thought it appropriate that you had a ghost in your keyboard right before Halloween.
