about

It is with great pride that Rippa Recordings is distributing
ABOUT TIME by one of Australia's truly great vocalists
PAT POWELL!

'This has been a long journey for Charlie and I, pretty much 6 years back and forth because of life and its trails but I believe that the blood sweat and tears have all been worth it, this is my first album and it is long overdue, there's a wealth of my history in the feeling of each song and inspiration from my heroes of 6 decades it's raw its different and it's me ...enjoy.'

With a career that spans over four decades and right across the globe, Pat Powell (Patou) is one of Australia’s most accomplished vocal talents. He is the artist that everyone wants to work with.

The empowering lyrics that fuel Patou’s songs were seeded in him as a young Jamaican man making his way in a troubled 1960s-70s Bristol. Persecuted by the cops on the streets throughout his teens, Patou would find solace in the Jamaican dance tunes played by his folks, and in the RnB clubs that he snuck out of home to DJ in.

In his own right Patou has recorded over 20 singles, one album and recorded vocals for more than 14 artists. He has been seen performing in a myriad of films from Mad Max 3 to Whipping Boy and stage productions such as Dealers Choice at the Adelaide Festival Arts Centre. He also continues his commercial voice-over recording work and mentors a vast diversity of artists at various stages in their careers, from high school students to accomplished artists.
