Ed Patrick came to Australia three years ago with an acoustic guitar and a backpack, planning to do some traveling, enjoy the sunshine and maybe play a song or two along the way.
Strange how life works out.
Originally from the cold, wet streets of Glasgow, Scotland, Ed is a refreshingly honest and down to earth singer/songwriter. Drawing on the deep musical heritage of his home town and such influential bands as Travis, Teenage Fanclub, The Fratellis and Franz Ferdinand, Ed writes songs that are both emotionally intense and melodically captivating.
“It’s been interesting to have that musical and cultural background and then be inspired by the experiences I’ve had in Australia in a totally different way. Hopefully it’s created something unique” he says.
Ed Patrick will release his debut record in 2009
