Pat Troester [NEW DEMOS!]

About Me

So, this page is just a space to post my solo stuff, some of it is different versions of things that i've done with my bands, but most of it is just real straightforward acoustic gutar songs i've written the past few years. Hope you all enjoyI'm trying to play as much as humanly possible, so if you're interested in booking me, just send me a message on this page, or email me at [email protected] My Debut EP "Out of Context" is now available. If you are interested in a copy, you can purchase one at Presque Isle Gallery Coffeehouse, at one of my shows, or just send me a message here and I'll figure out a way to get one to you. The cost is only $5 and with the next present-giving-holiday probably fast approaching, you can't beat the value.Photos from PI Gallery Coffeehouse by Mark Gregory Dietz www.lioncove.com [email protected]..
