Patrick French Live

Patrick French is a North Carolina native, multi-instrumentalist, and singer/songwriter based in Asheville, NC. When speaking of the inspiration behind his music he believes that “a good song can bring you to tears, help you smile through pain, or give ya a full belly laugh.” Effortlessly blending genres from Americana, Bluegrass, and Blues, Patrick is a true American roots artist whose songwriting prowess is equal to his guitar playing. Raised in High Point, NC, and steeped in traditional Blues thanks to his Louisiana-born parents Patrick has called the Blue Ridge home since the age of 18. He is also a founding member of the Blues band “Mama and the Ruckus” led by Melissa McKinney.
