Doors open at 7:00 p.m. Concert starts at 8:00 p.m. For more info call 519-371-7611 and ask for Jade or Ryan or email concerts@theowen.comPat was born and raised in Windsor, Ontario, the city of roses and the automotive capitol of Canada. His brand of music doesn’t quite showcase the sound of Motown Detroit, but it’s got the soul and spirit to measure up. He doesn’t tour with a band or record with one. He prefers to keep the decisions and performances up to himself, and he’s still able to paint a landscape with a song as if a hundred people had given their advice.

Windor seems to be pumping out some major talent… We’re very lucky to have such great performers two weekends in a row… right here in Downtown Owen Sound.
