about

Continuing many of the themes introduced on his well-received debut album "Parlor Tricks and Porch Favorites", PG Six's 'The Well Of Memory' makes nods towards 60's folk artists like Bert Jansch, Pentangle, Incredible String Band, and John Fahey, while also fitting in with contemporary musicians like New York psych folk poster-boy Devendra Banhardt, Anglo-folk traditionalist Alasdair Roberts, and West Coast psych guitarist Ben Chasny of Six Organs of Admittance.

Pat's lyrics draw on narrative force, spinning mythology in abstract patterns that stretch moments of clarity between dreamlike sequences. His music, composed away from the bustle of the city in upstate New York, breathes as solemn spirituals. With 'The Well of Memory', P.G. Six transcends mere revival carving a permanent spot amongst contemporary singer/songwriters.
