Inside The Unsaid

Pat Keating writes in the liner notes, "All too often, 'guitar music' seems just that - music written and performed strictly for the purpose of demonstrating blazing speed and technical wizardry. While Inside The Unsaid is certain to leave fans of the genre speechless, Patrick DeCoste reveals he is a master of more than the fretboard. Patrick is often compared to the few who have achieved his level of skill. Yet, flashy guitarists are often a flash in the pan. Patrick's genius is in the maturity of his songwriting. A well-rounded exploration, tasty lines and burnished production gives one's imagination license to wander. An alchemy of superior tone and technique forges the soundtrack for your story, not his. The absence of words allows for a deeper, non-verbal connection with fans. In concert, audience members seem to become part of the music. He is a sound wiser than his years. So too, is Patrick himself. In spite of his technical prowess, it seems his finest moments aren't a performance."
