Audra Kubat has a free show on Thursday

Penny Wells talks about her musical style and performs in studio

On Live In The D, we love to start our week off with some great music from our talented friends. Today, R&B singer Keith Patterson, who has been nominated for a Detroit Music Award and winner of an episode of Showtime at the Apollo, chatted with Tati Amare to talk about his music.

For Detroit Music Award Nominee, Jeff Scott, that means pouring hours into creating his new song. She recommended he write a song to uplift people during these tough times in quarantine, and he took her up on it. Jeff Scott has been a part of the Detroit music scene for a long time now. He was in a fairly popular Detroit band in the late 80s and early 90s, but then he walked away from music for a while. To hear the song, or to watch the full interview, watch the video above.

Get ready to smile wide when jamming out with this band. Pat Smillie and his band joined hosts, Jason Carr and Tati Amare for Music Monday. This Detroit Music Award nominee, brings the perfect blend of rock, soul, and Motown. On Sunday, October 12th, Pat Smillie is having a CD release party at The Token Lounge in Westland. Watch the video above to see Pat Smillie and his band perform a song from his album "Lonesome for a Long Time".
