About Patrick Ballantyne; A prolific songwriter, with over 100 songs in his catalogue, Patrick Ballantyne knows "a good song stands on its own." His style is informed by classic Detroit rock and roll, yet his approach to song writing could more accurately be described as British rock and roll meets country soul. The array of artists he has worked with (including Tim Chaisson [americana], The Trews, [rock] Shane Chisholm [country], Meredith Shaw [pop/folk], Wide Mouth Mason [blues rock], Grady [heavy southern rock] and Big Sugar [reggae rock]) demonstrates his versatility and endurance. His lyrics invite the listener into a world of universal themes of love and loss. Perhaps that is why songs like "All Hell for a Basement" have become staples of the Canadian music landscape.
