Patrick Wilson
Sat January 11, 2025
It’s not often that audiences witness an artist whose output is so grounded, personable, and heartrendingly honest. We’ve seen it with the likes of Marlon Williams, Kacey Musgraves and Roy Orbison, all stars in their own right, but it’s in Patrick Wilson that this unique class of alternative, old-time Americana finds its true north. Wilson’s rich, even-flowing voice tempts light to even the dar…

Patrick Wilson
Sat January 11, 2025

It’s not often that audiences witness an artist whose output is so grounded, personable, and heartrendingly honest. We’ve seen it with the likes of Marlon Williams, Kacey Musgraves and Roy Orbison, all stars in their own right, but it’s in Patrick Wilson that this unique class of alternative, old-time Americana finds its true north.

Wilson’s rich, even-flowing voice tempts light to even the darkest corners of rooms and implores us, above all, to place trust in the hands of its owner. Make no mistake: Patrick Wilson is a man of his word.

A true musician of the rarest skill, he remains in demand as a drummer and long-time guitarist for a conglomeration of Australian acts, including Fanny Lumsden, Henry Wagons Georgia State Line, Lachlan Bryan and the Wildes, Ben Mastwyk and his Millions and many more. Wilson has supported The Bellamy Brothers (USA) and Australian country heavyweight Bill Chambers (Dead Ringer Band), and has travelled internationally playing shows alongside James Ellis and the Jealous Guys.

Catch him in Beechworth on his way to Tamworth!
