Boyack performs modern electric blues and blues rock. He has released four albums since 1994, for both the Bullseye Blues and Doc Blues record labels. Inspired by contemporary Texas blues, Boyack moved to Dallas, Texas, in 1991, and played in a number of bar bands, including Rocket 88s.
In 1993, Boyack formed the Prowlers with John Garza (bass) and Doug Swancy (drums).
The Prowlers added Jimmy Morello (singer/harmonica) and secured a recording contract with Bullseye Blues Records (part of Rounder Records). Pat Boyack & the Prowlers debut album Breakin" In (1994), was followed by On the Prowl (1996).
By the time the third album, Super Blue & Funky, was released in 1997, a new backing band had been assembled, which took far less prominent billing. Following a change in record label, Boyack"s fourth album, Voices from the Street was released in May 2004.
