Pat Green (born April 5, 1972 in San Antonio, Texas) is a singer/songwriter from Texas. Green was born in San Antonio and raised in Waco, Texas. He attended school at Texas Tech, and is known for his brand of “Texas country”, which was made famous by Cory Morrow, Robert Earl Keen, and others.
While Green spent many years playing to young college audiences in “college towns” across America, he has recently joined popular country music artists like Keith Urban, Gretchen Wilson, Kenny Chesney, and others on major headliner tours. Many have argued that this is an example of Green “selling out” and not staying true to his roots and the fans that made him what he is today. Others argue that Green’s songwriting has slipped into what can be classified as “bland pop country” ever since his newfound fame came with his breakout album “Wave on Wave” in 2003.
Still others feel he is opening doors, otherwise locked, for Texas musicians.

Country music hipsters make me lol. Being a successful musician- ie making a living from playing music- means selling records.

Pat Green may have sold out, but at least we still have Cory Morrow, Kevin Fowler, Charlie Robison, & Jason Bolland.

Let me take you back to a time, lo almost 10 years ago now, when Pat Green was irreverent, punchy, interesting and thoroughly good music. Now flash forward to the present, where I end this comment by saying "MEH/SELLOUT X4". Literally, in the textbook definition way, changed his product to sell records. Which I don't quite understand because Pat Green was pretty damn successful to begin with...

Apparently Nashville pays more than Austin :-) Maybe he didn't sellout. Perhaps he conquered both
