Patrick Hazell Music

The Des Moines Register has called Patrick Hazell "a legend in Iowa Music," and is referred to by many as the "Godfather of Iowa Blues.” Teaching himself Boogie Woogie piano in 1956, Hazell began his professional career in 1961, and in 1968 co-founded the MOTHER BLUES BAND, one of the Midwest’s premier blues bands that toured through the early 1980s. With a wide repertoire of original compositions and rhythm and blues standards with over 40 recorded albums, Hazell started touring as a soloist in 1983 and continues to perform in the American Midwest, Europe, Russia, and South America.
