Las Vegas, NV --- Patrick Sieben has been confirmed as the opener for YES / TOTO on August 11 at Brooklyn, NY's  Barclays Center and in Los Angeles, CA on September 6 at The Greek Theater.  Sieben began 2015 with a heavy schedule of appearances, staging performances five to six nights a week.   He continues to appear a minimum of four nights a week at Las Vegas' Aria, alongside additional performances that include Anaheim's House of Blues which he headlined in May.  Sieben shares, "I'm honored to share the stage with legendary rock bands Yes & Toto.  I hope to bring the fans even a fraction of the enjoyment that both bands have provided through the years."

Over the last three years, Patrick Sieben has become an attraction in Las Vegas.  His fan base combines the millions he has come in to contact with through an on-going residency at the Aria Hotel and Casino, alongside many who have discovered him via the Internet embracing the musician's repertoire that explores the theme of living life to the fullest.  He offers, "You have to enjoy every moment you can, because tomorrow it could be gone.  What we have is now, and it may be all we get.  Don't waste it."  Sieben wakes every day with a practicing mantra that one needs to "live to live."

As a performer, he approaches his artistry with the singular goal to make people feel. Whether that's happy or sad he aims to deliver an experience to as many people as he can.  He envisions a career that will continue to exponentially grow aiming to create music that listeners want to hear, which he defines as, "Something that's real."  His current collaborators are Ryan Martin (drums) and Danny Jacobellis (bass) and over the last three years they have staged close to a thousand gigs.  When in the studio, Sieben brings in lead guitarist Joel Shearer.

A significant portion of the album was tracked at WAX Ltd in Hollywood, CA with producer Wally Gagel (Muse, Maroon 5, Family of the Year).  The rest of the album was recorded at the Blasting Room in Fort Collins with a buddy of his from college Chris Beeble. The tracks were mixed by Andrew Berlin.  He reveals, "We wanted to get out of the craziness of Las Vegas and LA and record somewhere where we could clear our minds.  The Blasting Room was the perfect place. We were able to capture some raw, real moments in the studio that may not have come out the same way if surrounded by casinos and strip clubs."

Sieben is a member of Serving Our Troops. The Minnesota based group's mission is to serve incredible steak dinners to soldiers, as well as their families back home. They continue to do this all over the globe annually.  Thus far his affiliation and commitment to the initiative has brought him to Kuwait and Norway to provide entertainment for the soldiers.

He titled the label District 7 to capture the union of the neighborhood he resides in (District) and the literal German definition of his last name (7).  Sieben offers, "I wanted to tie together my life and music career in Vegas with the roots I have with my family back in Minnesota."  As Sieben continues his journey, his music and lyrics will continue to gain traction via fans across the globe.  Las Vegas may be the epicenter of discovery for the time being, but his presence on the road will continue to expand following the footsteps of all who are introduced to his repertoire in his hometown.
