A viola, piano, dulcimer, harp, lyre, and tenor guitar player, Patrick's decade of critically acclaimed work, touring, joining Patti Smith's band, collaborations with Florence Welch, Marianne Faithful, Angelo Badalamenti, and rapid, stellar ascent led to a sudden retreat from the industry where a decade of personal trial ended with a renaissance and reconnection with his work and vocation, documented in a feature film biopic documentary slated for release at the end of this year, executive produced by Tilda Swinton. Last year, he released his seventh album , "rdquo" -> Crying the Neck", an end-of-summer folkloric odyssey set in the landscape at the end of the East of England where Wolf lives and works. The album's success brought him back to his North American audiences; for his first tour in over 13 years, he embarked on a ten-week tour driving himself from east to west coast, where he discovered not only his fanbase had been waiting all that time, but a brand new one had grown in his absence in the States. The success of last year's tour brings Patrick back to North America this year with , "rdquo" -> The Tour of the Beast", this time an extensive East to West coast and back again routing with a coinciding 7" single and release campaign, launching two new songs to the States and ringing in the next era of Patrick Wolf. The first, a bombastic harpsichord banger and outsider anthem , "rdquo" -> The Beast", partly inspired by conversations had in the meet-and-greets of last year's tour and a hymn of solace, initially written as a response to Camus's "The Myth of Sisyphus", a lyre and vocal lullaby called , "rdquo" -> The Laughing Dove". The Guardian - "The Goth Folk Pioneer, A true one off" New York Times - "One of Britains most appealing singer songwriters" Lady Gaga - "Fantastic, Amazing, I listen to him, I meditate" Rolling Stone - "There's nothing not awesome about him" NME - "Britains foremost pop pioneer" Tilda Swinton - , "rdquo" -> My feeling is that we certainly come from the same planet: kith and kin. His music sounds like the great unexpressed soundtrack of a great film I want to see -- and try to catch every night before I go to sleep.."
