About Patrick and Shelle Bryant

Patrick Bryant has been writing and arranging songs and performing live music for over 20 years. For almost just as long, he's known his wife Shelle. The pair met singing choral music together in college and married soon after. When Shelle adds her beautiful voice and rich, inventive harmonies to Patrick's agile songwriting, the result is sublime.

Patrick and Shelle are working with Atlanta Producer Jimmy Ether to release their first CD as a duo. The songs above are demo tracks from those sessions. Please give a listen and hit the "become a fan" link to support straightforward, honest songwriting!

Blurbs and Buzz

Patrick Bryant blends the prolific poignancy of Billy Bragg, the playful humor of Towns Van Zant and ribbon-like vocal timbre of a young Willie Nelson. Combined with his wife Shelle's harmonies, they
evoke the intimate union of Gram Parsons and Emmylou Harris. It's heartfelt and raw... as all good alt-country/americana should be, and yet, seldom is. They are always a pleasure to record.

Patrick and Shelle Bryant present a collection of beautifully constructed acoustic ballads woven with sensual imagery. Patrick's able guitar  punctuates the intelligently sensitive lyrics. Listen and you'll feel what I'm talking about but more importantly, you'll know what you're feeling. No guesswork. Patrick's assertive but mellow vocals are enhanced by Shelle's perfectly blended harmonies. Patrick and Shelle Bryant are an essential part of my listening rotation. Thanks to my iPod, I  don't leave home without them.
