of writing excellent songs. He is also a showman that weaves humor and wit into
his performances. A concert with Pat can move you with his songs such as

Scott Joplin's Maple Leaf Rag. His tongue-in-cheek humor shows up in his
hilarious songs Bio and Stealing From Chet while his sentimentality is apparent
in Out On The Road To Kingdom Come. A concert with Pat Donohue is
