Hanging with Patrick Sweany at NAMM

Patrick Sweany is a soulful singer and killer guitar player who currently lives in Nashville.

Fender had him come to Anaheim, Calif., to help demo the new Acoustic Pro Series amps during NAMM this month. Now, what that means is that Patrick basically played five four-song sets throughout each day of the trade show. Four days of five mini-sets. Wow.

But he didn’t bat an eye. His voice might have gotten a little scratchy as the week rolled on, but that just added to the grittiness that is a Patrick Sweany performance. And for those that know Sweany, you know that he has personality for days and will talk to anyone. So he smiles and joked with the hundreds (thousands?) of people that wanted to interact with him while he was on the NAMM floor.

I had the opportunity to film a quick interview/performance with Patrick to talk about the Acoustic Pro, and you can check it out below.
