DEAF JOE

ALTERNATIVE
WATERFORD, COUNTY WATERFORD
976

Joe is anything but deaf. Well.. maybe a little deaf to the noisy ebb and flow of fashion and fad, but not to the source of his soulful and dreamlike songs. Joe writes, arranges and plays everything on his recordings except for a trusted collaborator sitting in on drums. His romantic leanings are further portrayed in his work for music in theatre and dance in his home town of Waterford, Ireland.

What's he trying to do? "I've been asking the same question myself. No answers yet though.. but hopefully the listeners can get as lost in the songs as I do."

He has recently put the finishing touches to his first full-length, due for release January '11. Never one to sit still, he is also currently working on collaborative projects with Katie Kim and Molotov Ape.

"Joe's vocal hits the spot while a widescreen soundtrack punches you in the gut." - Hot Press (Pick of the Fortnight)
