Early life

Tanner Patrick Howe was born in Los Angeles, California on May 24, 1991.
At the age of 17, Howe was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. Following his diagnosis, he founded the band Disco Curtis with longtime friends Garrett Perales and AJ Novak. After gaining popularity through independent touring, the band signed a record deal with MySpace Records, joined the 2010 Vans Warped Tour, performed at Bamboozle West and played shows with Boys Like Girls and Forever The Sickest Kids.
Upon the conclusion of the Warped Tour, Tanner announced Disco Curtis' disbandment, as the other members were leaving the band to focus on their university studies. Shortly after, Tanner moved to Los Angeles to write, refocus, and demo new songs as a solo artist.

After several months of working with various producers around the Los Angeles area, Patrick moved back to Dallas to continue writing and producing demos on his own. In spring 2011, Tanner tweeted that he had written and demoed more than 80 songs over the past six months.
On July 23, 2011, Tanner announced the official beginning of "Tanner Patrick" via live web chat. That following month, he uploaded an introduction video to launch his YouTube channel.

After his television debut, he was hired to write, produce, and record the original song, "Progress" and play the lead role in Logitech's new advertisement campaign. He successfully completed the project in the first quarter of 2013. A few months later, Patrick made his international debut, performing as a featured artist on the "YouTube Sensations: Under The Stars Concert" at The Coliseum in Singapore.
