Born to a Sierra Leonean father and a German mother in a
town outside Cologne, Germany, in July 1979, Patrice
Bart-Williams grew up listening to Burning Spear, Fela
Kuti, Bob Marley, and Bob Dylan, first writing his own
songs when he was 12. He spent his teen years playing with
various bands, including the Afro-beat/reggae group Bantu,
through which he met Matthias Arfmann, who produced his
debut EP, Lions, which came out in 1999. His combination
of reggae, soul, and folk attracted attention from the
major labels, and his first full-length, Ancient Spirit,
was released on Sony the following year. In 2002 How Do
You Call It?, a more polished and less idealistic album
than the previous one, was issued. In 2003 Patrice teamed
up with the German reggae collective Silly Walks Movement
to release the aptly titled Silly Walks Meets Patrice, and
in 2005 the artist's third record, Nile, hit shelves. Most
of that year was spent touring Europe with his band
Shashamani, furthering his reputation as an electric live
performer, a talent of his that was shared with the
worldwide public with his 2006 live album, Raw & Uncut,
which also came in DVD form.
