Her music, professionalism, superior songwriting and stage savvy, dedication to craft, and attitude has built her a loyal following of fans and has earned her the respect of the music community - both from her fellow performers and from the owners & staff of the venues that she's worked with. She always brings a wonderful mix of songs, music, and warmth to her shows.

"I think we should all help anywhere we can - anyone, any living thing - it's my passion and my penance (for all the years that I didn't do the right thing). Sometimes I end up talking with the audience as much as playing for them!" "...of course it's also about eating good bar-b-que, laughing, playing some music and having some fun with your friends!" pk

  • It hits the spot everytime!!
    author: Lisa Ballin

    The first time I heard this CD, it never left my player for at least a week. The songs range form quiet and soulful to fast and funny. My favorite song is Just One More. I can't listen to it enough. I can't wait to hear more from Patty in the future!!!

  • Wonderful voice, great energy!
    author: Erik Balkey

    Patty is the real deal. The music and the person. A wonderful voice, thoughtful lyrics and charming songs all convey a truly vibrant and buoyant spirit. I'm glad to know her, and proud to recommend her music.

  • Fabulous! Funny, irreverrent, touching - a gem!
    author: Tara

    Patty's cd is FABULOUS! They lyrics are funny, touching, and oh so real! It's like sitting across the table with a good friend talking about how crazy life can get - but laughing just the same - cause what else is there to do really??? Great songs by an incredibly talented artist!

  • Patty's music makes me cry (it's a good thing)
    author: Scott

    Here is a copy of some correspondence I had with Patty three days after buying "Watching the World"..... "Hey Patty! I think a thank you is in order. Your CD has slapped me across the face, taken me outside a beaten me with raw emotion...I believe it was Ralph Waldo Emerson that said "If you laugh, think, and cry each day, you have had one heck of a day". I have laughed (a little), cried (a lot), and thought (way too much) while listening to your music over the past few days. I have defective tear ducts...I don't cry, not by choice, but because I can't...your songs have created one of the most wonderful emotions I could ever ask for...the gift of tears! Thank you so much!!! The smiles have been equally as wonderful. You have provoked a lot of memories to come to the forefront of my consciousness. I have always loved your music, but the tracks on your CD are absolutely fabulous. YOU have made me think a little more and about a few more things. Thank You Patty!" A truely wonderful disc.....buy it today!!

  • ah...Viva la difference'

    This effort by Ms Keough is a breath of fresh air in this age of the Britney's & Whitney's of Pop culture. Patty's clarity comes though on each track and is sure to draw the listener in immediately. Heartfelt and mature, Ms Keough is sure to resonate for a long time.
