Musical troubadour Patty Larkin has been redefining the boundaries
of folk-urban pop music for more than 20 years with her inventive
guitar wizardry and uncompromising vocals and lyrics. Acoustic Guitar
hails “her soundscape experiments” while Rolling Stone
praises her “evocative vocals, and subtle sonic shading.”
She has been described as “riveting” (Chicago Tribune),
“hypnotic” (Entertainment Weekly) and “drop-dead
brilliant” (Performing Songwriter).
