about

"Music is an architecture of emotion that everyone has a hand in building. Whether you're the listener or the player, we all take part in the construction of this art. Hank & Pattie create emotion drawn from the deep well of their friendship, spanning a decade now. The songs, sometimes autobiographical, sometimes metaphorical, always both, channel emotion to the listener as part of a shared space we all inhabit. Their friendship shines through in the songs, and while they are not related by blood, they share a bond as great as any siblings. Rise Above is the culmination of their work thus far in Hank, Pattie & The Current. It's an album centered around the cohesive theme of rising above the fray, cutting through division and noise. Rising above to meet challenges and exuding a quiet, powerful strength that others can lean on, deriving inspiration. It means rising above present levels as a band and presenting an album that is consistent, concise and emblematic of their evolution as musicians and humans at large. It also means rising above the current nationalist climate, speaking out against injustice and uniting people around love and community. It is touching and heart breaking, jubilant and care-free. It reflects the deep, emotional bond these two share with each other, their bandmates and the audience.”
