About Me
Tim Patrick and His Blue Eyes Band perform the music of Frank Sinatra, Michael Buble, Bobby Darin, Nat King Cole, Tony Bennett, originals, and music from many other greats. I only started singing 10 years ago. Before that time, I never sang in front of anyone...not my wife or my kids. I never even sang in the shower! The only time I ever sang was when I was alone in the car. Well, I got up the nerve to try it in the oldest piano bar in America, Nye's. They gave me such a wild acceptance that I have been singing ever since. I started a big band and have 3 CDs playing on jazz radio stations around the world. It has been a fantastic ride so far!
My Jazz Story
Andy Williams' long time pianist, Joanne Grauer, insisted on recording my first CD with me in Reno, NV in 2006. She told me I should label myself as a "world-class" vocalist because she said I had the best voice of anyone she ever worked with. Since that time, LA Jazz Critic Scott Yanow, wrote a book about the greatest jazz singers and was nice enough to include me in it, along with all the really greats. I have since sung in the U.S. and Europe and have a big band. I'm based out of Minnesota and have about 50 gigs always booked...it's a very busy life and I love it! When I am on stage, I joke around by telling people "I know, I know...Michael Buble...I'm told he sounds a lot like me!" Well, I did have the voice first!
