I'm Patrick Pezzutto, 21, from Italy. I moved to London at the
end of 2010.It's been a privilege to have the opportunity to move
to the heart of the UK music scene. Since my relocation I have met
and played with some truly great musicians!
For me it's all about taking inspiration from anything and
anyone that surrounds me, making experiences and learning from each
one of them. I've always put all my enthusiasm and passion into
every opportunity that came up. this gives me a strong work ethic
and professional attitude.
I've played everything from small bar gigs to big arena stages,
trio gigs and big orchestras, and every gig has been a lesson! And
I just can't wait for the next one!
I'm a competent reader and I have a strong theory foundation, I
constantly try to push myself forward to improve my playing and
expand my vocabulary. I've played rock, pop, country, soul,
classical, jazz, everything is good as long as it grooves!!
I look forward to hearing from you soon!
Here's a summary of my education and some projects I've worked
on recently:

MUSICAL EDUCATION
Tech Music School, London. (www.techmusicschool.co.uk) I

Graduated with distinction in December 2011. Named 'Bass Player Of
The Year.'

RECENT PROJECTS
I have recently taken part at two great concerts at the Royal
Albert Hall and the Wembley Arena on the 20th and 24th of April
2012 for “Pass the Torch”, an olympic-themed musical with over 1700
instrumentalists from the Brent, Enfield, Haringey youth orchestras
and members of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
Performing “Olympic Symphony”, a composition by James Redwood
(Royal Philharmonic), under the direction of Nicholas Collon
(Aurora Orchestra, London Philarmonic Orchestra). (Footage
Available on my website)
I regularly perform with the house-band at one of the most
exciting and vibrant music nights of the capital, Troy bar
(www.troybar.com) on Friday nights.I have shared the stage with
some of the most talented musicians in the country here. This venue
has been host to almost every up and coming UK talent in the
industry at some point or other, be it either before their fame or
after.
I play bass for the Rock band Achilla (www.achillamusic.com).
Achilla is an up and coming act with five years of intense touring
activity. The debut album 'Timeless' is to be released on 3rd
September 2012 and has already received five star reviews from two
internationally recognised European journalists Malcolm Dome (UK)
and Götz Kühnemund (Germany).
This summer Achilla has been on touring England and Wales. In
May 2012 Achilla performed at the O2 Academy Birmingham supporting
renowned vocalist ZP Theart's (Dragonforce) band I AM I for their
debut show.

As the final date of the summer tour, we headlined the Femme
Metal Fest at Birmingham Asylum.
In April 2012 I've played for singer-songwriter Zophia Scarlett
(www.zophiamusic.com) at O2 Academy Islington.
In December 2011 I performed in front of a sold-out O2 Academy
Islington for the Tech Music School Graduation. On this night I had
the opportunity to put in practice a year of studies, working on my
performance as an individual and as part of an ensemble. I also
used my versatility to my advantage as I was required to perform
three songs each one from a particular genre (funk, pop and rock).
During the preparation for the show I had the opportunity to work
with one of the UK's most renowned Musical Directors, Jon Shone
(One Direction, Marina and the Diamonds, Pixie Lott). (Footage
available on my website).
I am currently working as a freelance electric bassist in the
UK, and I am available for tours (UK and Worldwide), Studio Work,
Musicals, Original Projects, Function Work and any other gigs/deps.
All work considered so please don't hesitate to get in touch!
