Eilidh Patterson “This revelatory release signals the arrival of a potent, singular talent.” Francis Jones “(Eilidh) has an easy going
charm and commanding stage presence that demands your attention. Her sweet voice never fails to amaze me. Definitely a star of
the future.” Ralph McLean, BBC
Radio Ulster. Eilidh (pronounced "I - Lee") Patterson is a 25
year old singer/songwriter from Derry whose style is influenced by a
combination of folk, country, gospel and bluegrass music. Born into a line of singers, poets and folk musicians,
Eilidh’s natural creative talents were nurtured through impromptu
fireside ‘sessions’. Formal lessons on piano, violin and flute
would follow and, aged fifteen, Eilidh would experience her own musical
epiphany. Her father showed her a few basic chords on the guitar and, bestowed with this knowledge, she determined
to make music her life’s vocation.
