Details:
Pop with jazzy, a sometimes slightly melancholic touch, but also with humor within reach. Patrick Rydman belongs to the rare kind of singers that merges jazz with other genres in a completely natural and magnificent manner. Born and raised outside of Gothenburg, Patrick Rydman is a rare occurence on the Swedish music scene: A male jazz singer of the younger generation who furthermore writes his own material. His music sounds like “poetic singer/songwriter jazz with strong pop sentiments and a little bit of circus”, according to Patrick himself. Influenced by songwriters like Bacharach, Jobim, Paddy McAloon, Bill Withers and Joni Mitchell, raised on pop songs and tunes from the Great American Songbook, the resulting mix is Patrick’s own: melodic, personal, groovy, intimate and full of variation. Patrick has been seen and heard on the Swedish music and theater scene in a multitude of groups, projects and productions. He is a singing, composing and arranging member of the vocal ensemble Amanda with numerous shows in Sweden and abroad and two Swedish Grammy nominations to their credit. He has produced and written songs for other artists, worked as a theater musician, composed for the stage and radio, sung Burt Bacharach-hits in the cult show The Missing Fortnight and been featured vocal soloist with Bohuslän Big Band on several occasions. Apart from his original material, he has sung a large part of the Great American Songbook, where he has collaborated extensively with piano player Anders Persson (who has played with Toots Thielemans, Jim Beard and Viktoria Tolstoy to name but a few) having as a guiding light the classic recordings of Bill Evans and Tony Bennett. 50''s, 60''s and 70''s soul, pop and rock n'' roll hits and contemporary classics are also part of his vast https://www.tradebit.com jazz influence originally comes from his father who was a talented amateur musician and an avid be-bop listener. Originally starting with the trumpet (which he still plays from time to time, including on his own recordings), Patrick moved on to the drums and in his later teens started focusing on his singing. I Will Do It is his debut as a solo artist.
PRESS QUOTES:
Groovy and laid back, he is walking the streets of Gothenburg or other big cities, hangs in bars and cafés, dances the bossa nova and back beat blues and sits and ponders lost love.
Many of the songs bear clear traces of Burt Bacharch, in others it sounds like Bo Kaspers (Swedish pop/jazz band) and in some one can associate to the later works of Elvis Costello.
Patrick Rydman… makes his debut with only original material, is the lead vocalist and plays the trumpet.
Pretty much all the tracks are strong melodies that grow on you after a couple of listens. "Only the Devil", "Overnight Sensation" and the title track "I Will Do It" are my favorites.
This is music for concentrated listening, with lyrics worth considering, but works equally well in the background with good food, a little romance and lit candles.
Anders Eklind, Arbetarbladet
Patrick has a smooth, characteristic voice, in which influences from Jamie Cullum and others, even Frank Sinatra, can be traced. He is a skillfull entertainer and credibly interprets his melodic, slightly jazzy tunes to an excellent background with the brothers Fabian and Josef Kallerdahl (MusicMusicMusic) in the forefront. The material is soft spoken and varied and works perfectly… A strong debut!
Tore Ljungberg, GP
I Will Do It is Patrick Rydman''s debut CD. It''s a varied album with ingredients from several different styles, but the basis is jazz with a pop signature, where we can find earlier greats like for instance Tony Bennett and contemporaries like Harry Connick Jr, Jamie Cullum and Diana Krall. What Patrick presents here is tranquil, smooth and melancholy and finds its place in the smoky jazz club rather than on the big concert arena. With the jazz hat on, the CD is also a nice fusion of different styles; from blues, pop, jazz to soul. Melodies faithful to the genres as well as more experimental ones.

Talented Gothenburg-based singer presents a more mature Jamie Cullum-style: popbluesjazzsinatraretro in the shape of a bunch of smart original tunes, plus lyrics sprinkled with witty expressions and turns of phrases. Patrick Rydman deals with stompy stuff and ballads with equal finesse and jazz feeling. He is accompanied by very competent players.

Patrick Rydman is well worth discovering!
