Chapter One

The soul-forward saxophonist.

Patrick Lamb is an award-winning jazz and soul saxophonist recognized for his soulful intensity, electrifying stage presence, and deep connection with audiences worldwide. A powerhouse vocalist and world-class saxophonist, he has achieved Billboard hits and maintains a nonstop tour schedule.

From the stage

Patrick's self-produced single "Tailgate!" was added to SiriusXM Watercolors and became most-added to Billboard Radio — a moment he describes as a love letter to every dressing room, backstage, and late-night drive that got him there.

Across his catalog, Patrick has earned three Billboard Top-Five hits, quietly establishing himself as one of the most consistent contemporary jazz artists of his generation.
