"There is an honesty and generosity in the way Patrick Bloom presents his carefully crafted studies of the human experience. They are stories about you and I. His subjects are not extraordinary, it is their ordinariness that makes them special..."
-Jeff Weiss, Miles of Music
"This is the kind of masterful songwriting that you rarely hear these days. You’ll hear it in an artists like Gillian Welch, David Rawlings, and Steve Earle, and maybe a handful of other contemporary songwriters, but, for the most part, folks with this kind of talent are few and far between."
-Teddy Goldstein, Broadtexter
"Million Miles Away might be the best Jayhawks song Gary Louris or Mark Olson didn't write."
-Absolute Powerpop

Transplanted to the black dirt of Iowa via the housing projects of east Los Angeles and the working class industry of Long Island’s Southern shore, Bloom's feet have taken root in the rich and muddy musical history carried along the Mississippi River. He’s been labeled a “masterful songwriter” by the Grand Island Independent, and a reviewer from Modern Vertebrate once wrote “every time I listen to his lyrics, I think to myself, ‘Man, I wish I could write like that!’ Then I hide in my closet and cry.”
