About Pat
The Box of Memories Vintage Music Show is a fun and nostalgic musical experience that has brought back memories and joy to thousands of American seniors. The show involves only familiar songs designed to take the listener back to Simpler Times. It’s performed in a way that the audience can easily sing and participate in the show. Traditional country music specialist Pat Maue started the show in 2023 and it has been expanding throughout the East Coast since. Even individuals with severe cases of Dementia, Alzheimer’s, and Parkinson’s are able to sing along. Benefits also include heightened sense of morale among residents, singing, recall with familiar song lyrics, great memories brought back, and affordable price that is competitive and will work with most budgets.
