Behind the music:
A native of Overland Park, Kansas, Patrick Padley was the youngest of three lively boys. He was first introduced to music at a young age by joining choir in 5th grade. Pat went to St. Thomas Aquinas High School where he continued to be in choir and develop a greater love for music by acting and singing in on-stage musicals. In addition to learning music at school Pat furthered his passion by taking 6 years of percussion lessons (this is actually his main instrument).
After quickly picking up piano by ear during the summer between his freshman and sophomore year of high school, he started writing instrumental pieces. Patrick’s first CD, Embodiment, was published in September of 2004. Embodiment is a collection of piano solos composed over a two year period and is an essential CD for anyone who loves new age music. Since its release both critics and fans have quickly realized that Pat has a gift for composing comforting melodies that are soothing to the heart.
Patrick currently works in Kansas City at Nicholson Kovac and enjoys writing music in his spare time.
