About Me

My music is ever growing and changing (like an Amoeba)
or not...My songs are written about my experiences and
thoughts through life and are kinda bookmarks to points,
places and frame of mind at that time.
I'm at the point where I feel I would really benefit from a
label to guide me, get me out there touring, and form a band with dedicated musicians. I'm so very focused now, I just need
things to come together I know I have the potential to
achieve something fantastic.
here are some written reviews
''Elliott's songs are really easy to listen to and aren't over-complicated. He demonstrated some very intricate guitar playing but it was executed with such ease and professionalism that it could easily have appeared simple.''
Catherine Burke
''There is no doubt that Elliott has a wonderfully soulful voice, and a fantastic ability to 'jam' out his songs. As always, he showed tonight a fantastic sense of rhythm; whether it was a little or a lot of this set that was improvised, the fact that the majority of it sounded that way sums up the sense of freedom that exists in his music. At his best, Elliott Paterson can send shivers down the spine,''
Tony Foster Bhone
''He provides powerfully emotive blend of lyrics, delicate guitar playing and free flowing whimsical vocal melodies, that always hits the spot.''
''His own brand of Buckley inspired folk''
Romin of Ten to Never

Sounds Like: The singer / song-writer on one hand has a talent for writing imediate catchy melodic songs, that you will find in your head for days. From the slightly qurky to easy listening or heart felt ballads. Elliott has an amazingly beautiful voice to acompany.

On the other hand we find a more raw, acoustic darker sound, powerful and honest that seems to strike directly at the heart of the emotions and experiences we all share. Elliott can certainly hold a crowd, the perfect setting for any back room club or atmospheric venue '' There were moments you could hear a pin drop!''.

He has a shed load of songs, infused with acoustic soul, street folk and a rythmical blues/ jazz pop element.
With his touching, and at times disarming voice, well crafted maturing songs Elliott Paterson has the potential to not only flourish locally, but ultimately to be a global success.
Record Label: I'm sure I had one, it must have peeled off..
