PATRICE PIKE IS A MULTI-DIMENSIONAL ARTIST WHO HAS DEDICATED HER LIFE TO MASTERING AUTHENTIC LIVE PERFORMANCE AND SINCERE STUDIO RECORDINGS. SINCE HER EARLY ROOTS PLAYING GUITAR, PERCUSSION AND SINGING LEAD IN THE BAND SISTER SEVEN TO HER CURRENT MELDING OF ROCK POP AND SOUL, SHE HAS BROUGHT TOGETHER PEOPLE FROM ALL DIFFERENT WALKS OF LIFE IN HER PROCESS. IN THE EARLY YEARS BARELY OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL, SHE TRAVELED WITH WIDESPREAD PANIC, BLUES TRAVELER AND DAVE MATTHEWS AMONG OTHERS IN THE JAM BAND SCENE BECAUSE OF HER ABILITY TO NOT ONLY CRAFT SOLID SONGS, BUT BECAUSE OF HER UNIQUE TALENT WITH VOCAL SOLOING AND IMPROVISING. THROUGH THE YEARS SHE ALSO SHARED STAGES WITH SARAH MCLACHLAN, NATALIE MERCHANT, SOUL ASYLUM, CAKE, STONE TEMPLE PILOTS, THE NEVILLE BROTHERS RAY CHARLES AND SO MANY MORE.
BEING ONE OF THE YOUNGEST TO BE INDUCTED INTO THE TEXAS MUSIC HALL OF FAME VIA THE AUSTIN MUSIC AWARDS IN 2006-2007, SHE GARNERED MANY AWARDS INCLUDING MUSICIAN OF THE YEAR, BEST ROCK ARTIST, SONG OF THE YEAR, AND FEMALE VOCALIST OF THE YEAR.
SHE HAS BEEN SEEN AROUND THE WORLD PERFORMING FOR 2 MONTHS ON PRIMETIME CBS TELEVISION AND WAS AN UNUSUAL BREATH OF FRESH AIR ON THE SHOW ROCKSTAR. PATRICE HAD THE ABILITY TO STAY
GROUNDED AND CREATE PERFORMANCES IN THE REALITY SHOW MEDIUM THAT OFTEN MAKES OTHERS LOOK CHEAP AND AMATEURISH. SHE WAS INSTEAD A SHINING EXAMPLE OF PROFESSIONAL GRACE AND MUSICALITY.
ALTHOUGH IT IS IMPORTANT TO FOCUS ON AN ARTISTS WORK, IT IS ALSO EQUALLY IMPORTANT TO MENTION PATRICE’S PASSION FOR SOCIAL JUSTICE FOR CHALLENGED YOUTH. SHE FOUNDED THE GRACE FOUNDATION OF AUSTIN, WHICH PROVIDES FUNDING FOR HEALTH AND WELLNESS AND EDUCATION FOR YOUNG ADULT SURVIVORS OF CHILDHOOD HOMELESSNESS. SHE BALANCES HER MUSIC CAREER WITH DEVELOPING THE GRACE FOUNDATION. “PEOPLE ARE A PART OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY OF THE PLANET AND THE GRACE FOUNDATION ACKNOWLEGES THE CREATIVITY AND HUMAN SPIRIT OF YOUNG SURVIVORS OF HOMELESSNESS.”
PATRICE HAS BEEN SUPPORTING HER MOST RECENT RELEASE “UNRAVELING” AND IS NOW WORKING ON A NEW RECORD WHILE TOURING THROUGH THE SUMMER. SHE WILL BE MAKING A ROCK AND SOUL RECORD FOR RELEASE IN 2009. “SHE IS JUST SO INTELLIGENT, CONFIDENT, AND EFFORTLESSLY COOL THAT SHE DEMANDS A SPECIAL KIND OF RESPECT THAT COMES NOT JUST FROM HER MUSICAL CAPACITY, BUT HER BIG, DEVOTED HEART AS WELL.” MSN.COM
