About Me

Myspace Layouts at Pimp-My-Profile.com / BLack, bLuE & GreEN

Patrick is quite publicity-shy. Doesn't like to be photgraphed, and guards his privacy carefully.He writes and records his songs at night at his home studio in Amsterdam, playing all the instruments himself. Some of his songs are recorded stripped to the bone with just guitar & voice. Others are layered with a collection of unusual instruments, including kemanche, mellotron, cümbüs, mandolin, piano, Bengal flute...which come together to define his peculiar view of the world.Occasionally he does one-off gigs in off-beat venues.Patrick's CD, entitled Tykhana, has just been released on the new Amsterdam-based indie record label Elephant's Ear Music http://www.elephantsearmusic.comTyhnana is currently on sale at GET Records, Utrechtsestraat, Amsterdam.Take a look at the video for Hikikomori on You Tube http://youtube.com/watch?v=BsQqiWNTPPM
