Pat Sweany

The latest CD from the Patrick Sweany Band , henryfordbedroom is a startlingly original tour-de-force of roots music. Rising star, Patrick Sweany, well known on the American Festival circuit for his intricate, tasteful acoustic work, impassioned vocals, and highly original songwriting, showcases a mostly electric offering with his trio, the Patrick Sweany Band. The trio, modeled after the late, great Hounddog Taylor's Houserockers, consists of Patrick on lead vocals and guitar, Ted Pecchio (formerly of Col. Bruce Hampton's Codetalkers) on BARITONE guitar, and Clint "the Dover Tornado" Alguire on drums. This unconventional trio format allows the band a huge range of dynamic possibilities, from quiet, acoustic sounds, to hard swinging jump numbers, to overdriven slide guitar boogie, or full on rock bombast . With his sophomore release, Patrick continues to establish himself as a major force in Blues and roots oriented music. 

 

The twenty-nine year old singer/ guitarist originally hailing from Massillon, Ohio performs a mixture of musical styles, drawing on the traditions of the Mississippi delta and Northeastern Hill country, the wild jug band sounds of Memphis, early piedmont and ragtime blues fingerpicking, the driving boogie of the West Helena, Arkansas slide guitar tradition, the howl of the early Texas bluesmen, and a little West Coast Swing and New Orleans R&B. These diverse influences come together seamlessly in Patrick’s recording debut, I Wanna’ Tell You, and come into full fruition on henryfordbedroom, to showcase a unique style, firmly rooted in the blues, but unquestionably his own. This unique style was culled from years of careful listening to his father’s own playing at home and in church, as well as his extensive record collection of both blues and folk artists. Patrick found in such diverse artists as Charlie Patton, Fred MacDowell, Lightnin’ Hopkins, Memphis Slim, Jimmy Witherspoon, Wes
 Montgomery, and Leadbelly, a universal element that spoke to him, and would not to be denied. Perfectly comfortable in either solo or group formats, this multi–faceted artist performs with relentless enthusiasm, energy, and jaw-dropping showmanship. 

 

In 2003, Patrick Sweany returned a second time to Merlefest , one of the premier roots and Americana festivals in the world, where, in he shared the stage with Vassar Clements, Precious Bryant, Steve James, Paul Geremia, Honeyboy Edwards, Jorma Kaukonen, Chris Smither, Otis Taylor and Roy Book Binder. He recently taught a very successful weekend at Jorma Kaukonen ’ s Fur Peace Ranch, and will make appearances at the Queen City Blues Fest, The Big Bend Blues Bash, and the King Biscuit Blues Fest. Recent highlights include having toured the nation with International Blues/Rock Heavyweights, Jimmy Thackery and the Drivers, sharing the stage with Tab Benoit and Chubby Carrier at the annual Cottontown Blues Festival , a surprise headline spot at the Kansas City Gladstone Blues festival, sharing the stage with the likes of A.J. Croce, K. C. harmonica legend Little Hatch, and Jimmy Thackery, Performances at the Chicago House of Blues , including a New Year’s Eve celebration with The Kinsey
 Report, Better than Ezra, and Chris Isaak. Patrick realized a lifelong dream in 2002, when he was invited to sit in with none other than than Howlin’ Wolf guitarist Hubert Sumlin, backed by Muddy Waters alumnus Steady Rollin’ Bob Margolin’s band at the Marietta BluesFest. The coming months will see Patrick Sweany bringing his soulful and energetic music to audiences everywhere. 

 



finally gave your CD a listen…… Wow! I can’t remember when I have been so blown away… You really have put it all together!” 

Roy Book Binder 

 

“His enthusiasm is a contagious force to be reckoned with… Sweany is a gifted songwriter in the blues and folk idioms with a homespun yet street smart perspective that preserves the spirit of the old masters yet still bears wit and relevance in the modern day.” 

John C. Bruening, Cleveland Free Times 

 

“He walked onto the stage like a kid out of college, but when he hit that guitar, he was a blues man all the way. His voice was pure blues, and he swept through that guitar like it was running water.”
