Patsy Bellington is a native of Lenoir City, TN who lives in
Lewisville, Texas, a Dallas suburb. Her
professional career began in l980 and she has
recorded on Rainbow Sound label of Dallas, Texas
and with Reflections Studio in Nashville, TN in
addition to other personal projects.
Patsy has 10 released recording projects. In
addition to her CD release November 2004
entitled "Goin' Home", she released her first
piano CD in December of 2004, "Quite Christmas".
Her latest release, "God's Been Very Good"
is with MorningStar Records
in Nashville, TN.
She has worked a number of years on the
Templeton Christian Cruise Ships and in 2008
worked on the Carnival Cruise line in gospel
concerts throughout the Caribbean. Patsy has
also performed
in amphitheatres, Gospel Concerts, and Country
Shows across the country.
Patsy has been singing on stage since she was
six years old. With her creative and energetic
personality, she has the ability to reach out,
touch an audience and draw you into what she is
singing about on stage. Her ability to connect
with her audience is most unique. In earlier
years she was active in community theatres in
Tennessee, Florida and Texas where she played
title roles in South Pacific, Sound of Music,
Samuel Barbers' Little Red Riding Hood and
others.
She has appeared with notable performers as
Jerry Clower, James Blackwood, Hovie Lister,
Terry Blackwood, Squire Parsons, Jake Hess, The
Weatherfords, Bobby Clark and others. Stan
Knowles, former national and international
broadcaster says of her, "You can't put a label
on Patsy. She sings country, gospel, and the
great hymns of the faith with such personal
conviction and charisma. You can't help but be
drawn to the heart and message of her music."
Patsy has traveled many times to South America,
Mexico, Brazil and Asia, taking her contagious
and enthusiastic message of the love of Christ
in music. Currently she sings in churches,
theatres, and various showcases across the
United States. "I like being with people. I love
the excitement that comes in connecting with an
audience when I am singing or sharing my words
of faith whether it is in church or in a family
show. And it always amazes me how music crosses
all barriers of language, age and race of
people," she says.
Life has brought many changes in recent years
thru the close deaths of a grandson and a father. Having walked through the shadows
of death, almost simultaneously, she knows about
the love and peace of Christ she sings about in
concerts. She knows the message of hope for
death's dark hours when there are no earthly
answers to the questions of the heart. That has
brought new depth to her music. Patsy will warm
YOUR heart with her testimony of faith and her
music will draw you to Christ as she sings.
While Patsy was once known as an entertainer in
earlier years, today the listener gets far more
from her music than entertainment.
She is a member of the GMA, SGMA and Texas SGMA.
