Patrick Joseph is a singer-songwriter, film composer and multi-instrumentalist from Pittsburgh, PA. Joseph moved to Los Angeles to learn the art of recording his music.

Joseph has since self-released an acoustic version of these songs in Relics and in 2014 he followed these up with his sophomore LP Moon King.
