At 23, Patrick Wolf has already spent nearly half his life experimenting with music and refining his talents. It all started 12 years ago when Wolf first experimented with car boot sale keyboards and tape recorders and has resulted in one of the most startlingly original and innovative voices now emerging in English pop music.

Patrick’s first release, Lycanthropy was released on a small independent label in the summer of 2003 and was met with enormous critical acclaim. Wolf was also making guest appearances as a viola player with Chicks on Speed and The Hidden Cameras. The Cologne-based label Tomlab picked up the album for America and Europe, the start of a relationship which was to lead to Wolf’s second album, Wind in the Wires, released at the start of 2005.

Wolf toured extensively in the UK and throughout Europe in support of Wind In The Wires. Among his biggest fans were Bloc Party, who invited Patrick to tour with them on their 2005 fall tour.

His new album, The Magic Position was released this year. The album was written, produced and arranged by Wolf and features guest performances by Marianne Faithfull and Edward Larrikin from Larrikin Love as well as contributions from, among others, members of the Symphony Orchestra of Vienna.
