From our earliest childhood accidents to our most overwhelming adult anxieties, it’s a little phrase that looms large throughout our existence. Just ask Montreal indie-pop maestro \u003cstrong\u003ePatrick Watson\u003c\/strong\u003e who was recently faced with the biggest “uh oh” a professional singer could endure.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOne morning in the winter of 2023, Patrick woke up to discover that his voice—the angelic instrument that propelled 2006’s carnivalesque art-rock opus Close to Paradise to the Polaris Music Prize winner’s podium —had gone completely kaputt. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Obviously, I like singing for people, but I was really enjoying my Modular [synth] and diving into instrumental music”—a natural inclination for Patrick, who’s composed over 15 film scores to date. “But then I was like, ‘Oh, it’d be cool to write songs for all these different singers that I really want to hear sing—I’ll find my way out of this situation that way.’ Because my voice wasn’t supposed to come back. And when it did, I just thought having all these other singers was still a cooler idea for a record than me singing.”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RedEye","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62548954972490,"sku":"680341826028","price":4.32,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1043\/5470\/9834\/files\/99_c3c15459-e08c-423f-bb08-4adbb65ea181.jpg?v=1782547278","url":"https:\/\/www.velvetgrooveuk.com\/products\/680341826028","provider":"Velvet Groove Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
