Search - Patterson Barrett :: I Must Be Dreaming

Raised in the Washington, DC area, Patterson Barrett moved to Austin shortly after appearing on Jerry Jeff Walker¹s classic first album on MCA Records (including the song, L.A. Freeway). He soon formed the band Partners In Crime, which included Buddy and Julie Miller, and released one album under that name. Since then he has worked with artists as diverse as Hal Ketchum, Al Kooper, Nancy Giffith, Chuck Berry and Roky Erickson. After years of collaborating with so many artists, Barrett has found his own unique voice both as a songwriter and performer on his new release, I Must Be Dreaming. On the CD, he explores some of the aspects of dreams and alternate realities of life and death that touch us all. The album includes special guest appearances by Buddy and Julie Miller. The songs blend elements of country, rock, R&B and roots music for an all-Americana sound that¹s been compared to John Hiatt, The Band and Ryan Adams.
