Patrick Canning

Patrick is a mysterious man with mysterious plans.
Patrick writes fairly pleasant music about seemingly ugly sentiments and awful situations; he also writes it the other way around. Patrick is a musician, an artist and a contrarian who likes to get things his way, and so does everything himself pretty much. Patrick's latest album called "Let's Celebrate With Blood" is his eleventh self released full length album (his fourth under his own name). "Let's Celebrate With Blood" is Patrick's first real album with his band "The Suffering Mothers" featuring the kickass rhythm section of Devon Milley (Be Alright, Monsterbator) on drums and Victor Lewis (Kujo, Casual Male) on bass and the heartbreaking strings of Alison Corbett (Black Molly, Burning Hell). The new album is a sprawling effort with a strong blues influence with beats slow and heavy and the guitars layered in all kinds of crust.
Patrick is also a music journalist of sorts and has thoroughly documented the St John's music scene the last couple of years on his blog "Throwing Stones At You" and his Youtube channel.
