Captivating Solo Guitarist!

Patrick 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!

Fantastic Musician!

We 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!

What to expect

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).

About

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.

Additional booking notes

I can provide a PA System for both a small venue, as well as, a larger venue.
