Patrick Fitzgerald – Piano Teacher & Drum Teacher

Taught to play piano, sing and harmonize at an early age, Patrick Fitzgerald began working the live music venues of the Philadelphia area while in high school. Famous for hauling his 400lb Hammond Organ to every gig, he quickly became a fixture on Friday nights at the local rock and blues clubs.

Serious Eduction:

Patrick attended the Berklee College of Music to gain a broader perspective on music and hone his skills. After majoring in piano performance at Berklee, he returned to Philadelphia to study composition at the University of the Arts, before being lured away to Brooklyn where he worked as a touring and recording musician.

Patrick loves teaching lessons at Off the Wall that are substantive but really fun.

Favorite Bands:

According to his iTunes Play Counter, The Roots, Steely Dan and The Who are tied for Patrick’s favorite bands.

The first rock gig Patrick ever played was at the Gryphon Cafe in Wayne, PA.
