Question: What do you get when you cross an engaging singer-songwriter-guitar player, a former steel drummer, and a social activist?
Answer: Patti DeRosa!
Patti DeRosa started writing songs as soon as she got her first guitar when she was thirteen years old living in Long Island, NY. She and her guitar became inseparable, and she started performing in high school and throughout her college years in the New York area. She moved to Boston to pursue her graduate studies in social work and African American studies, and continued to be a frequent performer in the Boston and New York folk scene. In the mid-1980''s, she put down her guitar for the steel drums, as her love of Caribbean music and culture lead her to join the Boston-based Metro Steel Orchestra, where she played "pan", sang, and even did the limbo.
In the 1990''s, Patti took a long hiatus from the music world to dedicate herself to her passion for social justice. She is the founder and president of ChangeWorks Consulting, which helps organizations and communities work towards diversity, social justice, and equity.
But the draw of her music was too compelling, and Patti has picked up her guitar and is back performing again. Whether singing a comical ode to her Martin D-45 guitar and middle age, offering provocative insights on politics and current events, or reflecting on the trials and tribulations of everyday life and love, Patti DeRosa does not disappoint. With a deep and resonant voice, impressive guitar playing, and insightful songwriting, Patti DeRosa is a dynamic and engaging performer. Her music is a treat that is delivered with a stage presence that draws the audience in and warms the heart. Her first CD, Paradise, was released in January 2005.
