Patrick Kelly was the youngest of eight children raised in Western Scotland. His sisters played piano and he had an interest in playing the guitar. His passion led him to pursue a dream of being a rock star. While playing with his bands, he rented PA systems on the side, which led to friends asking him to sell equipment. His start in sales led to the beginning of what was Sound Control, a 26-store chain that was the largest in the market.
