I haven’t been able to locate any official word of how Patrick died but a few online sources have claimed that he committed suicide. The article above does mention, “In lieu of flowers, we encourage memorial contributions to the Mental Health Association of Middle Tennessee (2416 21st Avenue South, Nashville, TN 37212). All gifts received will be designated to support the Tennessee Suicide Prevention Network” but that is not necessarily a confirmation that Patrick did commit suicide. Since the release of “Moments” Emerson Drive has been very involved in the cause of suicide prevention so this may simply be an extension of their commitment to the cause.

All the raving is what I didn’t get either, but like you said, after the first few listens it started to grow on me.

Bingham’s voice definitely takes some getting accustomed to. The first time I heard him, I thought he was OK but couldn’t get why my friend raved about him. The second time, I kinda got it. By the third time, I was hooked. He writes about hardscrabble times and has the voice to match. Not bad for a 25-year-old.
