About this Event
“It’s in the nuanced detail that his songs slowly unfurl to reveal their real beauty” - Folk Radio UK
“…a gorgeous debut album from a hugely talented musical mind…” Totally Dublin
“Ethereal melodies from Indie-folk merchant…” - Hot Press
‘Remember that name, Patrick stefan’ - RTE Radio1
With entrancing, joyful, ethereal folk songs that blend old with new expertly accompanied by deft guitar playing & delivered with a delicate strength, Patrick stefan is described as the ‘voice of James Blake meets the guitar playing of Nick Drake’.
The Irish son of a Dutch songwriter, Patrick - an award-winning songwriter himself - recently released his debut album Wayfare, an alt-indie-folk document of Patrick's nautical ancestry & of his own weaving travels from Scandinavia, Brazil, to west Africa and back home, his songs voyaging through time and cultural space speaking to the intimate and profound.
In 2024 Patrick has performed at Folk Alliance USA & Your Roots are Showing showcases, and for Whelan’s ‘Ones to Watch’ and is fast becoming a must-see live act that captivates audiences.
A once-Fulbright scholar, Patrick left academia instead opted to follow the path of his father’s folk-singing- footsteps after an array of collaborations with artists like Niwel Tsumbu, fiddler Martin Hayes (with the award-winning instrumental group Ensemble Ériu) & Eurovision winner Luisa Sobral.
Patrick stefan is an Irish Arts Council Next Generation awardee, winner of the inaugural Night & Day festival song competition with the song Head Voices and an ISC songwriting semi-finalist. Patrick is endorsed by Tanglewood Guitars.
