Travis Patterson

Bass / Vocals

Where did you grow up?

I was born and raised in Tulsa Oklahoma and hoping to move soon!

How long have you been playing your instrument/running sound board/managing a band?

Funny thing, I have been playing my Bass now for about 4 years maybe but not straight so, probably for a about a year if you were to run the dates together. I am self taught until I’m told I’m doing it wrong.

Who were/are your musical influences?

Ok, don’t laugh but my musical influence was Elvis Presley (Gospel especially.) Then went onto Bands like Third Day, Kutless, and of course, Zion’s Fire

What bands or cd’s are you listening to today?

I listen to a lot of Third Day, Kutless, Fuse Box and Jeremy Camp.

Other hobbies besides playing music?

I am the youth director at our church and am dedicated to helping them to follow in Jesus’s footsteps.

What do you think is special about Zion’s Fire and their Music Ministry?

This band is very unique in that it has the feel of a true family who is willing to do what ever it takes to help one another. I feel TRULY BLESSED to be a part of this music ministry with such a loving group who share the same Fire for GOD!!
