Patrick Kelleher is an electronic musician, singer and producer based in Dublin. His sophomore album, Golden Syrup, was nominated for a Meteor Choice Music Prize in 2012. Performing as Patrick Kelleher and his Cold Dead Hands, he provided support for the likes of Future Islands, Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti, A Flock of Seagulls and Dan Deacon, and brought his live show to the UK, central Europe, the Balkans, the US and Brazil.
While his output to date has been characterised by ghostly visions of 80s Synth-Pop and New Wave, his most recent work treads darker, more vigorous ground, drawing inspiration from Acid House and early European Techno, accompanied throughout by intimate vocal melodies.
Patrick frequently collaborates with fellow musician, part-time Nurse With Wound member Brian Conniffe.
