Pat’s pad, which he affectionately calls “Coop De
Villa”, is located in Sweet Home, Alabama (yes, there
really is such a place). Sweet Home is about 90 miles
upstream from Muscle Shoals, Alabama—the legendary “Hit
Recording Capital of the World”. When Pat’s not busy flying
Boeing 727 freighters, he can usually be found hanging out
in Muscle Shoals, Gothenburg Sweden, or at his studio on
the grounds of “Coop De Villa”.
In regards to Gothenburg, Pat had this to say: “I felt a
little like Jed Clampett from ”The Beverly Hillbillies”
when I first discovered the rich pool of musical talent
residing in that city. I grew up in close proximity to
Muscle Shoals, so I knew all about the history there.
Gothenburg, however, was an unexpected and pleasant
surprise. It’s been really special having my songs create a
bridge which has brought together all of these great
musicians and singers from both sides of the Atlantic.”
Regardless of who or where it comes from, in the end, it
always about the music. And the bottom line is this: Pat
and his musical partners in rhyme are makin’ blues and
country, a little bit of soul, southern gospel, and rock
and roll. And this is the real deal y’all.
Drop by anytime. The lines are open 24 hours a day, 7 days
a week.
