Last May I saw Pat for the first time at my friends Rick & Diane’s place, the legendary Log House Concerts. Pat blew me away, full stop.
He has a bevy of impressive originals and he peppers his set with a handful of choice covers that are meaningful to him. Among others he does as good a version of “The River,” as I’ve heard anyone do. He’s an impressive and electrifying live performer. Born in Ireland, he’s made his home in Austin for a number of years now. You seriously don’t want to miss this show.
But don’t take my word alone for it, here are some professional opinions:
“When you combine the transcendent poetry of Bob Dylan with the gritty, real-world
rock-n-roll storytelling Bruce Springsteen made so famous, and add a dash of the political activism embodied by Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger, you’ll have Irish singer-songwriter Pat Byrne.”
-Folk Alley at 30A Songwriters Festival
“Byrne delivers 11 original tunes ranging from the buoyant pop of “Capsize” to the anthemic rock & roll of the title track to the tender balladry of “Precious Cargo” and “Win Lose or Drown.” A strong supporting cast helps make Into the Light one of the best-sounding singer-songwriter albums to come out of Austin in years. What ultimately stands out the most is how strong “Into the Light” is from start to finish. Every track radiates, and rewards repeated listening.”
-Peter Blackstock, Austin American Statesman
I’m extremely excited that Pat has made Vernon, NJ one of his May tour stops. I really hope you’ll join me for what promises to be an extremely memorable evening of songs.
