Club night, everyone welcome. Sing, play, read poetry or just listen.
Joe first appearance was at a club night, when he stunned us all with his unaccompanied version of the Last Laviathan (by Andy Barnes). He has played on stage and in the studio with many legends of the British folk scene including members of Fairport Convention, Andy Irvine and toured as stand in lead vocalist in the BBC2 award winning “Best live Act” Home Service.
During the Covid pandemic, Joe was asked to enter ITV’s The Voice and seeing it as fun challenge to do while the rest of the music industry was shut down, decided to give it a go. Joe reached the semifinals and his audition alone has reached nearly 1 million views on YouTube!.
