You're reading: The elves of Dark Patrick

When it’s hard to describe a group’s music, it usually means their making something interesting.

American music critics call Dark Patrick’s music post-modern folk, while the Brits think it’s steam punk, folkotronic and oriental music.

Ukrainians, on the other hand, hear the group’s resemblance with the legendary Doors, describing it as meditative, trance, world and intellectual.

Dark Patrick is a charismatic international duo of two musicians – Eva, the Ukrainian and Paul from England, both wholeheartedly dedicated to music.

They also both look like elves.

The duo play a wide range of instruments, including the lute, bandura, Irish flute and harmonica, often blending these sounds with synthesized club rhythms and pristine female vocals.
