Want to share this performance of "Kiss Me Baby" from the WILD fundraiser in Murphys, California last June. What a great night! Also want to invite you to join me and my dear friend Nathaniel Corum from Architecture for Humanity for a week on the Colorado River this June! The trip is called "Community, Gestalt, and Architecture in Nature". Going to be inspirational, educational, thrilling, and filled with music! Check out the trip details here: http://www.wild-outdoors.org/Colorado_RiverRafting/ColoradoRiver_7Day-C2.html

Blame:

Hello Everybody, This is a non-traditional combination of documentary segment coupled with music video of one of my new songs called "Blame". My good friend Pride Wright shot beautiful interview footage in one of my favorite nature spots in Austin, TX. Barton Creek was the temptress along with the music scene that led me to make Austin my home. Enjoy this special sneak peak into these sacred waters and be sure to check out the WILD Facebook group listed below.

Patrice Pike: Rocket-Roll and Avatar Soul

Patrice Pike has persevered in the music industry where there is no science to success. There is science, however, in sending one’s DNA to space. There is science in the technology behind video games. There is science to music theory.

But there is no true scientific formula to knowing melody, rhythm, song-writing as if it were a part of your own genetic make-up. And there is no science to philanthropy.

There is only Pike’s raw talent and drive that still goes unmatched today.  Patrice Pike has been privy to numerous successes in her career. With major label deals, international television appearances, global radio play, and countless concerts spanning the continents, Pike knows the ins-and-outs of life in music.

Pike recently received the great honor of being the youngest person ever inducted into the Texas Music Hall of Fame.  She has also received numerous awards, including Musician of the Year in Austin, Texas. She has released 5 CD’s and is soon to release a new creation which ventures into a new sound for Pike, mixing organic and electronic instruments, showcasing her strengths in rock and soul music.  

Traditional methods to success are only a small part of Pike’s vision. She has found herself now with the greatest intentions of reaching beyond the scope of her own fantastic history and is now turning her focus on other great achievements.

Alongside the release of a new record and continued touring, Pike was chosen with other celebrities to donate her DNA to be taken to the International Space Station. Her DNA was sent on a rocket with Richard Garriot to be preserved as part of an effort to protect a “copy of the human race”.  In addition to her involvement with the DNA in space project with Garriot, Pike is being morphed into an  avatar in a video game as a peaceful warrior character. In the spirit of  revolutionary modern music business and fun, Patrice will be debuting new tracks on the game while the viewer experiences a virtual band concert right on your screen.  

As if major record deals, DNA in space, and being an avatar aren’t enough, Pike is also a true believer in community and philanthropy.

Patrice co-founded The Grace Foundation of Texas, which raises health, wellness and education training for young adult survivors of childhood homelessness.

In it's third year, the Grace Foundation  of Texas has given scholarships and support to 5 young individuals who suffered the streets and who, like Pike herself, have persevered in a difficult world through  one’s own will and the dream to  become something greater than what was laid before them.  

Patrice is a true warrior on earth who is a visionary, an activist, a true power packed into a feisty body full of talent, energy, and soul. She sings the world into her music. Her melodies translate human troubles into love and peace. Her presence on stage represents a life full of adventure and fearlessness.

Her lyrics tell us a story of courage and humanity.  Her drive reminds us that we can take nothing less than the best of our hopes and desires.
