Bandleader, Bass
     Pat can remember one summer day when he was about 10 years old. "I was out playing with my friends when my father yelled out from the front door, Pat!!! get in here, I thought I did something wrong. When I walked in I can still remember this cool looking guy standing there with this red guitar. I looked at him as he put his hand out to shake mine. "What's happening my man, I understand you want to play the guitar." His name was Rich Serota. He went on to play "I want to hold your hand" by the Beatles. It was floored. and from that day on, my life has been surrounded by music.
When I was in high school I was in a band with my cousins and a couple of friends, our bass player was terrible, but he was one of my best friends, so I would play bass notes on my guitar, while he sang. He eventually quit , and I became the bass player".
     Pat has played bass for various club bands over the years, and worked with some of the finest musicians in the area. "I love all types of music, from Rock, R&B, Motown, Jazz, Latin, etc. and have been influenced by the likes of James Jamerson, Paul McCartney , John Paul Jones, Jaco Pastorius, Rocco Prestia, just to name a few, there are so many. To me, it really doesn't matter who the artist is, if it sounds good, and moves you, that's what its about 
     Pat is the founder and backbone of FM along with Steven and John. Actually John Daly came up with the name FM. (We were all fans of Steely Dan) We all been in bands with limited talent at one time or another. But with this group, the talent just flows. I was finally in a band that can play all types of music, do it well, and have fun at the same time. I really think we have something special here.
     So if you like to funk, dance, or just want to bob your head to the grove being laid down, then you"ll have to check out one of the most respected bass players in the area.
