Album Notes

The sad truth of Louisiana's vanishing coastline is captured in the meaningful title track "A Little Less Louisiana." Reflecting on other personal life events, Patrick Sylvest strikes a chord with his listeners connecting real experiences with inspiring lyrics. Patrick combines his smooth baritone vocals with the superb talent of Nashville's finest session players to create a sound that is contagiously appealing. With a mix of folk, jazz, cajun, bluegrass and blues, this impressive collection of original songs delivers from beginning to end.

Review from Houma Daily Courier's Mike Vinning:
What a pleasantly alluring CD. It's like taking everything you've ever loved about growing up in south Louisiana - combined with everything your grandparents told you about - and dividing it up equally among 12 original songs, and putting them all on one CD called "A Little Less Louisiana."

Patrick was awarded 'Finalist' for the title track, 'A Little Less Louisiana' in the 13th Annual USA Songwriting competition!

A Little Less Louisiana
author: Bobby Hillis
Patrick Sylvest has tones of Clapton in his voice and the colors of a true son of the South! The material is new, refreshing and the instrumentation of all...especiall Rob Ickes and Andy Leftwich... is superb. Rob sets the tone and Patrick delivers. This was a grand surprise but I will make sure all my friends know about Patrick "Loubro" Sylvest. I guar-onteee!
