Songwriters Lee Parvin and Mark Patterson have been producing original music for over 30 years. Together, they write and record songs for TV, film, and other recording artists. Their songs have received numerous awards as well as solid reviews from the music industry.

Grammy Award-winning producer Jason Miles: "It's hard to sell a blues song but Parvin & Patterson really pull it off with "Nob Hill Blues". This song and performance are right on the money."

Producer Doug Diamond: "Little Too Late" is an awesome mid-tempo Blues-Rock song about lost love. With superb performances all around, excellent production value - and most importantly - great songwriting and melody, it's a real treat for any listener. "Arcata" is one of the best Funk-influenced Bluesy Rock songs you will hear. With a combination one-two punch of excellent, poignant lyrics, smoky vocals and top-notch performances, this song is a perfect match for a dark drama, mystery, or thriller - and it's fun to listen to!

I just had to give you a well deserved, 5 Stars for "The Balladeer"! It may help you knock me off Top spot in Country Traditional, but I had to be true to myself! It's a great song in Lyrics and Melody! (And vocals of course). I like a Story Lyric a bit like Epic Tale, (Cohen and Lightfoot) and the melody, especially the chorus, is memorable! Love it! I have a song, "My Last Farewell" on here which is about a Country singer also! ( I would like Willie N. To sing it!) Great New Year to you!

Hey Jim! Thanks for the great feedback, and that's high praise indeed, to be mentioned in the same sentence as Cohen and Lightfoot, two of my idols. I put together a video for the track, which you might enjoy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qNj jvHm66aY. Meanwhile, I will check out My Last Farewell. Thanks again for the rating, and here's hoping that Willie covers your tune in 2022!

Video brings the song more alive where you can relate to Lyrics. Well done. You even had space for my hero, Leonard, early on! Video always brings a song alive! No more so than the two I have on my pages here on Broadjam. Go watch "Drift Away" video. It is a True, emotional, child's story! Then, "Reach the Sky" video is a more singalong chorus Country story, I made. Lastly, there is a Lyric video of "The Promise" which is presently a Finalist in 3 of the Big National Song Competitions.Let me know your thoughts! In the meantime I'll watch your other few videos. Cheers, jim
