Pat Maloney entertains with humour and folk

I caught the end of a solid set of folk and roots music from Ontario singer songwriter Pat Maloney at the Owl Acoustic Lounge, April 2.

He entertained an attentPat Maloney performing his music at the Owl. Photo by Richard Ameryive audience with his big baritone voice reminiscent of Waylon Jennings and Jamey Johnson.

In addition to singing  appealing folk music he told jokes with a wry sense of humour reminiscent of Todd Snider.

He strummed his guitar, sang into one mic and whistled solos into  another microphone as he played music from both his CDs “Root Rot” and “Repotting.”


Of these “Thanks for Everything” and his set ending song about gypsies were highlights.
