The Patterson Twins-Bio

The Patterson Twins (Estus Patterson, and Lester Patterson} were born in Magee, Mississippi on December 9, 1946.) Their musical background stems from singing in church, and High School. Their first professional singing performance was with a gospel group known as the Southern Sons. The twins pulled away from the Southern sons and started a Duo known as the âSoul Twinsâ. Both of the Patterson Twins had families to support, and didnât make enough income from Music alone in the early days to pay all the bills, so they had to work regular jobs. They would work the local clubs, and bars on the weekends.
After graduating from high school, they moved to Erie Pennsylvania where further organized their careers.
In 1968/1969 the Twins would return home to neighboring Jackson Mississippi and perform with the âMid â South Revueâ. Hense Powell - the Musical Arranger, and Director for the Mid â South Revue, was attending Jackson State University at that particular time, and was impressed with the talent and raw soul of the Duo, and put them on the show, which also featured Dorthy Moore - who later recorded Misty Blue for Malaco Records in the mid 1970âs.
