I'm Pat, the face behind Vandelay Touring.

For more than 20 years I've worked across the live music industry as a guitar tech, stage manager and production manager, supporting artists and crews throughout Australia and overseas.

I’m excited to bring together two parts of my work: touring support and a guitar workshop based in Frankston.

Whether I'm preparing instruments for a tour, building a pedalboard, repairing a guitar or helping a production run smoothly, I believe the same things matter every time; attention to detail, reliability and doing the job properly.

Every instrument, pedalboard and show is different, so I take the time to understand what's needed and find practical solutions that work.

When I'm not on the road or in the workshop, you'll usually find me spending time with my family or out chasing trout with a fly rod.

Thanks for stopping by.
