Though he was born in California, Canadian singer and
pianist Patrick Watson was raised outside Montreal, in
Hudson, Quebec, singing in the local church choirs as a
boy, studying jazz and classical piano performance,
composition, and arrangement, and singing and playing
keyboards in the ska band Gangster Politics in high
school. Watson left the band after graduating and began to
explore other types of music, including electronica and
ambient. In 2002, after returning from a trip to Vietnam,
he decided to start a four-piece chamber pop group,
bringing in bassist Mishka Stein, drummer Robbie Kuster
(both of whom he had met at university), and former
Gangster Politics guitarist Simon Angell. The group (which
was technically a solo project with a backing band)
released Just Another Ordinary Day independently and began
performing around Canada, including at the 2005 Pop
Montreal Festival, a show that led to the formation of
Secret City Records, the label that issued Patrick
Watson's sophomore album, Close to Paradise (which
featured the same band), in the fall of 2006, with a
release in the U.S. the following year.
