Seattle-based singer/songwriter Bill Patton finally steps out of the shadows with his full-length debut.

Bill has played guitar and pedal steel for the Fleet Foxes, Jesse Sykes, J. Tillman (Father John Misty), and many others over his storied career as an in-demand session player and sideman.

Never one to play it safe, the new album from the essential Seattle chanteur contains head-turning radical re-workings of both "Jenny From the Block" and "I Want To Hold Your Hand," adding layers of intrigue to this already-rich tapestry.

Far from a side-note, A New Kind Of Man proves that Patton can more than hold his own and hang with the big dogs as a songwriter and studio-smith.

It's the quiet ones, again and again.
