Patty PerShayla

Patty PerShayla is already a rarity as a combination singer and bassist, but has established herself as a stand-out performer by perching on one leg or strutting the stage in platform shoes. She is heard before she is seen, boasting a big voice for a relatively small vessel, and certainly has a lot to say—challenging gender norms, confronting imposter syndrome, processing trauma—and don’t even think about getting on her bad side.
