Out on the Eaves

Merging dreamy indie rock with cosmic Americana, Out on the Eaves is the creative vehicle for artist Patrick Carey. 

After formative years as a poetic mainstay of the Athens, Georgia music scene, Carey moved to Memphis, TN where he honed his musical craft. There he collaborated with his long-time pedal steel player and friend Matt Stoessel, (Faye Webster, Will Johnson, T. Hardy Morris), while gathering together a host of eclectic musicians to record what would become Out On the Eaves’ debut album, The Ride Out. The songs were taken to Scott McEwen, (Elvis Costello, JD McPherson) at Memphis Magnetic Recording Co. for final mixing.

The Ride Out became for Carey a psychic storm shelter without any walls. The album carries through it a clear sequence of timeless concepts: the need for a home and for peace within it. A search for the place within us we can always come back to, and how to find peace without it. A bargain we make with ourselves to remain independent of fear. And the boundaries we reshape for love.
