Album Notes

Many people have come to know Patrice Pike from her years as lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist for the popular Austin band 'Sister Seven'. Patrice and Sister Seven toured the United States and Western Europe in support of three independent releases and three major label albums. From Sister Seven's jam-band beginnings to their Billboard-charting radio singles, they headlined clubs and supported massive shed tours. Chris Riemenschneider of the Austin American Statesman sums up the band's multifaceted success; "Back when it was still Little Sister, Sister Seven epitomized the Austin jam-band phenomenon. Eventually though, the quartet sharpened its songwriting and recording style and became that rare local band that could pack the clubs on weekends and go out and earn national radio play the rest of the week. In recent years - when we've had live local favorites like Vallejo and Bob Schneider's various groups on one end, and radio bands such as Fastball, Dexter Freebish, and Dynamite Hack on the other - they were the only real instance of those twains ever meeting." Over those years Patrice Pike performed onstage with the likes of Dave Matthews, Sarah McLachlan, and Natalie Merchant, to name a few. The disbanding of Sister Seven and the release of her first indie solo effort has established Patrice Pike as one of the best current unsigned artists today.
