Quotes
"This is a fabulous new recording! You seamlessly transition from one style to another on these cuts...and do it so well. I have enjoyed watching and listening to you on stage for many years. You have somehow managed to capture that same energy and emotion in the studio for this project. For the listener who appreciates a variety of styles, rooted in a traditional vein and played very well, this recording IS the Perfect Fit!"
Cindy Baucom, National Syndicated Radio Host of 'Knee-Deep In Bluegrass'


"Clarity, balance, and fire; all the qualities of the best modern Bluegrass fiddling – are brought into focus by the Fine fiddler Patrick McAvinue. Patrick has stepped into his role as one of the most visible of Bluegrass fiddlers with grace and a sense of responsibility to the music that will please both Bluegrass fanatics and people who just enjoy music. Finely crafted Bluegrass picking and singing too, along with that clean, driving’ fiddlin’… Great work, Patrick."
Darol Anger, http://www.darolanger.com

"a roller coaster of pure, uncut fiddle nirvana."
Country Music Pride

"I’ve been waiting patiently for another Patrick McAvinue solo project - think 10 years! - and I’m not in the least surprised to find they’ve been years of growth in every aspect of his music. Perfect Fit shows, well, perfectly how broadly he can range, and the mastery he brings to every inch of that exploration. Great tunes, great performances—Perfect Fit was definitely worth the wait. RIYL: Hawktail, Punch Brothers, Infamous Stringdusters”
Jon Weisberger, music journalist, IBMA songwriter of the year

“He absorbs from any genre, but even more important, he can figure out how a certain style can impact what he plays in a different context.”
Fiddler Magazine

“McAvinue is one of the most in-demand players on the local music scene—and beyond. He has performed all over the world...his talents are audibly virtuosic."
Baltimore Style Magazine

"To me the most awesome thing about Patrick's playing is that he is not afraid of taking chances. Every time you hear him play he will play something different, but yet equally as exciting as the last. Killer!!"
Michael Cleveland, 10-Time IBMA Fiddle Player of the Year

"Patrick is what I was looking for in a musician. He'll step right up, and there is no situation he cannot handle. He's absolutely fearless."
Audie Blaylock, GRAMMY® Nominated Guitarist, Singer & Songwriter
