Pat McGee’s Down The Hatch has become a truly unique experience. Friends and artists share the same beachfront resort during 4 glorious days in the Outer Banks of North Carolina (OBX). For those of you who are veterans of this epic event, DTH needs no explanation. For any music fan searching for a slightly different getaway, look no further than Down The Hatch. It rejuvenates the heart and soul while invigorating your senses on all levels. It's the joy of discovering new music, and not just online, but really getting to know the artists in a relaxed and breathtaking setting and doing so with like-minded friends. The music has always been the focus but a very close second is OBX. Pat spent many years there throughout his youth and later with Pat McGee Band when they would make OBX a 3-day tour stop, setting up shop at a local venue and inviting friends and family to join. Those early days planted the passionate and creative seed to one day return and host a full scale festival.
