Pat Farrell

This Pennsylvania-based ’60s band released several singles for the Diamond label, and was fronted by Pat Farrell (real name Pat Sickafus). The group was originally known as the Triumphs, plus they had been briefly referred to as the Razor’s Advantage before buying Pat Farrell as well as the Believers. Sickafus composed a lot of the Believers’ music, which were way too pop to become comfortably referred to as “garage area.” Most of them had been pop-rock ballads, occasionally using a tinge of nation, that sounded rather near early-’60s pre-Beatles pop-rock crooning, though dispersed quantities like “Gotta Discover Her” and “Poor Woman” acquired an organ-driven, frat-rockish soul-rock audio. Their melodramatic past due-’60s one “Battle Boy” had a small amount of graph success, but nothing at all else was planned for the action ahead of their 1969 separation. The band’s two singles, and also a couple of unreleased originals and Pat Sickafus demos, had been compiled for Compact disc launch in 1998. Sickafus ultimately transformed his name to Pat Garrett and produced some nation recordings, including popular for Polygram in the first 1980s, “Sexy Aged Lady.”
