Don Paterson
The California Crooner

Don Paterson's performances evoke the easygoing charm and effortless style of an earlier era when the "crooners" relied on good songs and presentation from the heart to please an audience.

In choosing his material, Don enjoys seeking out overlooked treasures (as well as many familiar songs) from the worlds of musical theatre and popular music, to present a unique mixture of some of the most beautiful and poignant songs of the 20th century. High-quality, custom arrangements complement the carefully chosen melodies, and each song tells a story. Listen and enjoy.
