He makes beautiful music, plays accordion and has a font based on his handwriting, therefore he deserves a thread here.
Love him? Hate him? Don't know him?

I'm glad to hear that. And thank you. I obviously have that font too. Not that I use it.

I think I used it once.... for a school project. haha. Patrick is a very, very talented person. Im don't like The Bachelor as much as his older stuff, but do you know when the follow up album come out? I forgot what it was called.

Olga, you forgot that he plays violin, piano, guitar, ukelele and a few more instruments that you know better than I do. And that he's quite beautiful himself too. So uhm yes, I love him. Only recently fallen in musical love though. Like, two weeks ago. Karma for starting this thread!

The next album, The Conqueror, is supposed to come out this year. I have no idea when exactly. All I know is that he's working on it right now. Erin, I didn't forget about that at all, but you know about my little obsession with the accordion.

Erin, I didn't forget about that at all, but you know about my little obsession with the accordion. Nitpicking on my choice of words, aren't you? So you may not have forgotten about it, but you didn't mention it either. I'm not too keen on the red hair, but I like the bleach blonde and the black hair.

You're welcome! I'm hoping to see him soon too. Maybe after releasing The Conqueror he'll finally play in Poland. If not, I may plan a little trip. I've already been waiting 5 years to see him.
Haha, I like how he has a different hair color with every album. How he gets to look good in each of them is beyond me.

5 years!! wow, Olga, you definitely deserve to see him. I don't like Patrick's new hair! it looks very... fried and you can tell he's dyed it a lot. I feel bad for Patrick sometimes knowing about his past.

Erin, I'll post the full list in a while, especially for you. Thanks Ali! Do I sense another accordion fan? I know Maddy, he went through quite a lot and he still manages to turn it all into beautiful songs! That's amazing.

Yes Olga, come to Holland, so we can go together! I can't believe how often he's already played here; lots of festivals (3x @lowlands! wtf?) and quite a few of his own club gigs too. And I can't believe how I managed to not know him till so recently... Haha thanks for the upcoming list on instruments too.

5 years? Wow, I hope you get to see him, it must be really disappointing for you that you haven't been able to see him yet.
I don't know much about his past cos I'm still so new to him.
I actually used to love accordians as a kid. Maybe it was a sign...

Erin, I may just do that. What is important is that you're finally aware of his genius. Yes Ali, it is disappointing. But now that I've been invited to go and see him in Holland it may change when he starts touring again.

Ooh, can I come to Holland too? It's only over the water (though the postal service would suggest it's further away than bloody Mars)

Ooh, just got Olga's last PM so here goes so far:
Empress - beautiful, love it Pumpkin Soup - LOVE. IT!! Abolish Confusion - not so keen on this one, bit messy-sounding, but he says himself he was only 15 when he wrote it so that's probably why.
