Meet Patrick

He grew up in Central Louisiana playing in church, and at 12 he traded a stack of baseball cards for his first keyboard.

Ocean Springs has been home for seven years. His first job in town was at The Lady May; once people heard him play, one gig led to the next until music was his full-time work. In 2025 he played close to 300 shows on the Coast.

His voice leads and his hands stay on the keys: classic rock, soul and blues from the 1950s forward. Otis Redding, Bob Seger, Van Morrison, The Red Clay Strays, Tyler Childers, and some Jimmy Buffett when the weather is right.
