Patrick O'Hearn

An unlikely New Age stalwart, composer-keyboardist Patrick O'Hearn started his musical career as a Frank Zappa sideman, and later found fame as the bass player/synthesist for Missing Persons. His first album of keyboard instrumentals, ANCIENT DREAMS, was produced by Peter Baumann, and released in 1990 on Baumann's own label. He was signed to Windham Hill, resulting in several popular and critically acclaimed recordings, and he then went on to self-release several albums, including 1995's Grammy-nominated TRUST. His bass-heavy, hypnotic compositions also garnered him attention in Hollywood, where he has composed several film scores.
