Programme Leader for BMus (Hons) Music Performance & Production
From his early days playing Glastonbury in the ’90s to sharing stages with acts like The Levellers and Carleen Anderson, Pat’s musical journey has been diverse and dynamic.
A genre-spanning artist, he’s moved effortlessly from Punk and Grunge to Jazz and Soul, showcasing both creative and performance versatility. In the mid-’90s, his acclaimed bass sample CD gained recognition in top music magazines, and he later revived his grunge band, Laughing Boy, earning airplay on XFM.
Beyond performing, Pat has built a respected career in music education, teaching at LCCM and examining for Rockschool. His journey began as a Post Boy at Polydor in the ’80s, and in 2023, he was named UK Music’s Tutor of the Year, cementing his status as both an accomplished musician and inspiring mentor.
