Patrick Hagerman

Patrick Hagerman is an Americana songwriter with a voice like worn leather and a pen that cuts straight to the bone. Hailing from Springfield, IL and now based in Florida, Patrick blends over two decades of live performance experience into a rootsy mix of country, blues, rock and roll, and folk. His sound is raw, soulful, and steeped in the storytelling tradition of legends like Townes Van Zandt, Tom Waits, and John Prine.

With gut-wrenching honesty and cinematic detail, Hagerman writes the kind of songs that feel both intimately personal and strikingly universal. He’s the songwriter other songwriters quietly study—mining life’s beauty and heartbreak to craft lyrics that linger long after the music fades. Whether he’s reflecting on past battles or finding peace in the present, Patrick’s songs carry the weight of lived experience and the clarity of hard-won wisdom.

More than just a performer, Patrick sees music as a lifeline—for himself and for others. “If someone hears a song of mine and feels less alone, then I’ve done my job,” he says. That sense of connection defines his live shows, where his storytelling and stage presence invite audiences into a shared space of reflection, catharsis, and sometimes even healing.

For those drawn to unvarnished truth, timeless songwriting, and songs that feel like they’ve always been part of your story, Patrick Hagerman is a name to know—and a voice you won’t forget.
