Patrick is a remarkable young man who was born without eyes and without the ability to fully
straighten his arms and legs, making him unable to walk. Additionally, two steel rods were
surgically attached to Patrick's spine to correct scoliosis.
Despite circumstances that seem overwhelming to you and me, Patrick has overcome these
physical issues to excel as a musician and student. Patrick started playing the piano at the age of
only nine months, and also plays the trumpet and sings. He even participates in the University of
Louisville School of Music Marching and Pep Bands with help from his father (Patrick John Hughes),
who tirelessly maneuvers his wheel chair through the formations with the other 220+ members of the
Cardinal Marching Band. Patrick is usually a straight 'A' student, having received only 6 'B's' during
his entire educational experience - up to and including his junior year of college (3.9 gpa).
A virtuoso pianist, vocalist and trumpet player, Patrick has won or finished very high in
numerous competitions, as well as winning awards acknowledging the circumstances he has
overcome to achieve these heights. He has been featured on ESPN, ABC-TV, Oprah, CBS-TV, The
Ellen Show, Extreme Make Over Home Edition, FOX-TV, CSTV, NBC-TV, Million Dollar Round Table,
The Grand Ole Opry, People Magazine, Sports Illustrated, Star Magazine, and many, many others.
His first book, I AM POTENTIAL, is published and available around the country/world.
Patrick has made appearances from California to Chicago to New York and Miami and
countless points in between, even performing in Canada, South America and Europe.

| CLICK HERE! WHY I'M NOT IN THE UL ATHLETIC PEP BAND - WHY I DON'T WANT TO BE - AND WHY YOU SHOULDN'T SUPPORT THIS GROUP!! If you are a band parent, this is not the band for your son or daughter to travel with as it is composed of anyone willing to participate. College attendee/UL grad not required. No criminal background check. You just need a desire to play your instrument and travel with college students. Is this the educational college experience you want for your child? Marching band is still ok! |
