The mark of a great entertainer is one who can elicit a wide range of emotions from the audience. Recording artist Pat Garrett is such a performer.

At any given moment at a Pat Garrett concert you can see members of the audience wipe away a tear during a tender ballad, roar with laughter by a humorous novelty tune, or brought to their feet by a soaring anthem.

This talented singer, with a rich baritone voice, was signed by Polygram Records and achieved six nationally-charted Billboard singles. Also a prolific songwriter, several of Pat’s songs have received national attention. In 2003, his song “The Saddam Stomp” was aired coast to coast, hitting the Billboard charts, as Pat appeared in Country Weekly, Rolling Stone, and ABC News.

Another song that hit the national airwaves was the very popular patriotic tribute “If You Love America”, written in response to 9/11. Profits were donated to the America Red Cross, raising thousands of dollars for those who were most effected by the terrorist attack.

His pure and simple ballad “In the Blue Mountains”, a tribute to his home state of Pennsylvania, received rave reviews and was a favorite of Grammy-award winning songwriter and nationally-syndicated radio personality, Bill Mack.
