Jonathan Patrick Wimberly[1] is an American multi-instrumentalist, songwriter, mixer and record producer. Formerly one half of the Brooklynbased synth-pop duo Chairlift.[2] Wimberly's tenure in Chairlift was widely successful, and he quickly became a cornerstone in the Brooklyn music scene, ultimately crescendoing into collaborating with, producing, and touring with the likes of Beyoncé, Solange, MGMT, Blood Orange and Das Racist.[3][4]

Career

Chairlift

Originally from Nashville, TN Patrick met band-mate Caroline Polachek at the University of Colorado in 2004.[5] After moving to New York City in 2006, Patrick and Caroline, along with former band member Aaron Pfenning, formed Chairlift in early 2007.[6]

In 2008, Patrick went on tour with Chairlift to open for experimental indie rockers Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti.[6] Shortly thereafter, Chairlift's song "Bruises" was featured in the September 2008 commercial for the iPod Nano; becoming their most widely known and breakout single following the release of their debut album Does You Inspire You.[7][8]

Following Does You Inspire You, Patrick worked on Chairlift's 2012 sophomore album Something (Chairlift album).[9] The album features singles "Amanaemonesia" (2011), "Met Before" (2012), and "I Belong In Your Arms" (2012)[8]

In January 2016, Chairlift released their third and final album, Moth.

Collaborations

Chairlift collaborated with Das Racist on the song "Fashion Party", the tenth song on Das Racist's 2010 mixtape, Sit Down, Man. In 2011, Patrick produced multiple songs in American rap group Das Racist's album Relax.[10] The album reached the number one spot on Billboard Magazine's Top Heatseekers and was named one of the best albums of 2011 by both Spin and Rolling Stone magazines.[11][12][13]

Furthermore in 2011, Patrick worked as a composer and producer on the album "We Are The Lucky Ones" by Latin singer Tecla and played the drums, keyboard, percussions, and produced on Acrylic's Lives and Treasure.[14] Patrick produced Brooklyn band Fort Lean's EP Change Your Name in 2012.[15] In 2013 Patrick joined Solange Knowles's touring live show where he played drums for her band.[16] Patrick has also partnered with Solange for songwriting on her upcoming album.[17] Beyoncé invited Patrick to work on her self-titled surprise album Beyoncé in 2013. During their studio sessions, Caroline gave Beyoncé a song she had worked on called "No Angel." The track, co-produced by Patrick, made it on Beyoncé which was released in December 2013.[18] Patrick mixed Arcadia, the 2014 debut album of Caroline's side project Ramona Lisa.[19] He was also credited with mixing Tune-Yards’ latest album Nikki Nack in May 2014.[14] In April 2014, Patrick did additional production and mixed Kelela & Tink's collaborative song "Want It."[20] Along with producing, Patrick worked with band Wet on "These Days" off of their 2016 album Don't You[21] Among Patrick's latest collaborations includes work with Dev Hynes (Blood Orange) on his latest album Freetown Sound, where Patrick played drums, percussion, and bass on song "Desirée"[22]

Currently, Patrick spends most of his time producing other artists. His most recent work includes working with Soku on her single Sweets Sound of Ignorance which came out in early 2017. He also co-produced the last MGMT record, their fourth LP entitled Little Dark Age which came out February 9, 2018.[23] Public Access T.V., is another artist that has used Patrick for production work on their sophomore LP Street Safari slated for release on February 23, 2018 on Cinematic Music Group.[24]

In June 2009, Patrick performed with fellow Chairlift band member Caroline Polachek on The Late Late Show With Craig Ferguson, playing their breakout single "Bruises". They also appeared in 2013 on Last Call with Carson Daly, performing "Amanaemonesia", a song off of their second full-length album Something.[25] On November 28, 2011 Patrick performed with Das Racist on Late Night With Conan O'Brien playing the drums to their hit "Michael Jackson."[26] He also played the drums alongside Solange for her December 10, 2012 performance of "Losing You" on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.[27]
