Solo acoustic guitarist and vocalist specializing in popular songs from the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's and 2000's. My current song catalogue is upwards of 300 songs and I can also easily learn songs if requested ahead of time. I also own multiple PA systems to fit virtually any venue.

July 16, 2026We cannot say enough good things about Patrick. He played for 4 hours at our backyard wedding reception. He provided the perfect background soundtrack and ambience for our gathering of 100+ people. Great voice and sound system and a song list that suited our crowd aged 20-70 perfectly. Excellent and prompt communicator. Very professional and accommodating manner. Would hire him again in a heartbeat.

July 22, 2025Patrick truly captivated the audience at our large fundraiser at Tuttles in Hopkins, MN, with his solo acoustics and singing. He was incredibly professional, arriving early, taking requests, and even playing for free to support the school. Patrick played a wide variety of songs and kept the energy going throughout the evening. I would highly recommend Patrick Shaughnessy for any event!

July 21, 2025We booked Patrick for a backyard birthday party without ever having met him or hearing his music. He was highly recommended and we were not disappointed! He even taught himself some new songs that we requested. Everyone at the party raved about him! He was prompt and friendly, had a lot of energy and played a wide variety of songs. We loved his set list of mostly rock and roll music. Some of our guests even commented that they thought he was better than musicians that they frequently hear in bars. If you're looking for a singing guitarist, we highly recommend Patrick for your event!

Acoustic guitar with vocals (with the addition of foot tambourine and harmonica on some songs). I am very friendly and can get along with virtually anyone. My book of music is very diverse and I can also learn songs very quickly and sometimes right on the spot (if its a request).
My name is Patrick Shaughnessy and I absolutely LOVE music and love playing live music most of all! I have been playing the guitar and singing since I was 14 (which is 38 years now that I am 52). I play songs from the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's and 2000's and can learn new songs (or take requests) pretty easily in most cases. My primary goal is to share my love of music with whoever cares to listen.
I can provide a PA System for both a small venue, as well as, a larger venue.
