Renaissance Man Calisus

The Renaissance Man (Patrick Koch) has been writing music for years. He founded the alternative rock band Calisus which is a melodic rock group influenced by many. Patrick Koch has produced three albums, including his first solo effort under the name Renaissance Man, entitled "Mockingbyrd". It is a raw and emotional, no-holds-barred pure rock album influenced from his love interest. Patrick Koch dedicates his main musical career focus on Calisus, but still loves to be the Renaissance Man.

Renaissance Man and Calisus use KMH-Recording Studio in Lusby, MD for all their audio/video needs.
