Maison symphonique de Montréal, Montréal, qc, Canada (November 28)
Patrick Watson (born 1979 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada) is a Canadian singer-songwriter, whose blend of cabaret pop and classical music influences with indie rock has been compared to Rufus Wainwright, Jeff Buckley and Andrew Bird.
With his wife due to give birth any day now, Watson joked between nervous sips of whiskey that he might be in some trouble, confirming with a crew member that he hadn't received any calls.
It immediately seems a more lucid spacious offering than his other albums quite something given that his second album Close To Paradise won the Polaris Prize back in 2007 (the Canadian equivalent to the UK’s Mercury Prize).
