While flight attendant, Lex Honey gave hope to Patrick and all musicians alike when she replied, “I know you’ve had bad experiences w air canada in the past, but they’ve updated their policy - you can’t be forced to check musical instruments anymore! Hope it gets easier for you!” [sic]

Patrick recently dropped her latest single, Ours. Written by Patrick alongside Joey Hyde, Matt McGinn and Lydia Vaughn, Ours laments the lingering memories of a love gone sour, watching a former lover with a new partner and experiencing a difficult déjà vu in the process.
“Ours is about what it feels like when an ex hits ‘copy and paste’ with the new girl or guy,” Patrick said in a statement. “They take them to the same bar, do all the same things they did with you, and to top it all off, they have the audacity to dance with them to the song that used to be yours.”
