Pat
Mears is a singer/songwriter, currently retired from the
music business and living a quiet life in Lockhart, Texas.
This website is offered in support of her music which
is still a viable source of strength in her life.
Pat
Mears' career in music spanned 30 years, beginning in
the small coffeehouses and bars in Boston, and ending
on the bigger stages in Holland and Europe. Eventually,
common traps in the music business stopped her performing:
ineffective management, poor choices, and alcohol. As
she explains ...
Her
first album, There Goes the Rainbow was a tour de force
– it is one of those rare musical statements that
is perfect and timeless. Each song follows the other
naturally and with a tension in build-up that pulls
the listener in, as the stories are told, as written
and sung by Pat Mears, of human sorrow, and desire,
and experience. "If I die tomorrow," Pat says,
"at least
I will know that I made this album."
The
musicians on Rainbow were
Leland Waddell, drummer, David Waddell, bass player,
Randy Glines, harmonica, and the three guitar greats:
Gary Craft, Eric Blakely, see website, www.ericblakely.com,
and Billy Mack.
Find the album on the web, or download the tracks and
remember to
play it loud: if you love the blues, and original music,
and women singers, and monster Texas guitar players,
this CD won’t leave your player for awhile. And
that’s for sure.
