Patrick Simmons Jr.
Bio
Pat Simmons Jr. has gathered a colorful and diverse musical repertoire surrounded by rock & roll legends his entire life. Growing up on tour with his father’s band The Doobie Brothers is only half the story though. With an upbringing rooted on the family’s farm in rural windward Maui, it’s obvious where Pat’s humble attitude and relaxed sound comes from. The country lifestyle of a local farmer, surfer and father of three kids is among his most impactful influences. At the 2018 Nā Hōkū Hanohano Awards, Simmons Jr. was nominated for Most Promising New Artist along with his first studio recording “THIS MOUNTAIN” nominated for EP of the Year. Pat’s debut album, which was co-produced by father and son, (Pat Sr. & Jr.) features moving performances by some of the family’s closest musical friends, including Keali’i Reichel, Willie K., Elvin Bishop & a few of the Doobie Brothers as well.
