Listen! New song about Patrick by the Christian Music duo Bloodkin!
      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 5 'B's' since 6th grade up to and including his sophomore year of college.
      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, The Grand Ole Opry, People Magazine, Sports Illustrated, Star Magazine, and many, many others.   
      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.
