Pat O‘May will be at the Boule Noire on October 8 with special guest Jessie Lee, a raising great guitarist and Alicia F will be the support act to the evening.
Of Irish origin, Pat has been touring European stages for almost 40 years and is back on stage to present his new concept album “Welcome To A New World”.
Considered one of the most inventive guitarists and musicians of his generation by his peers (Ron Bumblefoot Thal of Guns N’Roses, Martin Barre of Jethro Tull and Alan Stivell) and in the specialized press, Pat takes us on a journey through universe of Mr No Face the central character of his concept album. At the crossroads between Matrix and Tommy of the Who, his vocal power and his extraordinary guitar playing are reminiscent of Rush, Steve Vaî, Jeff Beck, Ronnie James Dio. Prolific artist with more than 12 albums, without forgetting his music for the legendary show Thalassa, Canal + or the BBC, you have all listened to him one day, sometimes without even knowing it.
“The sharing, the energy and the power of Pat O’May are the most striking qualities of the concert, run and see them on stage you will not regret” Le Parisien

From Belgian and Italian parents, I grew up with music, dance and big fun! I love singing since I'm a little girl, I still am, haha. When I was 14, I saw my first concert: T-Rex. Later it was FrankZappa, Miles Davis, Chick Corea, Fela, Canned Heat, Little Feat, Bonnie Raitt, Earth, Wind and Fire ....
I dreamed to have a chat with each of them 😀 Before interviewing bands, I used to sing (and still do) and met lots of great musicians. I had the chance to be the support band to Joe Cocker in 2007. I love to communicate and meet people (Italian blood).
Working for magazine, a few years ago, l met José Oliveira! We were working at the same festival in Colmar. 2 people from the South with the same passion just recognized each other...and we stayed in contact since then. Here I am! Enjoying concerts, covering interviews and articles with José for Rock at Night!!
