Hey , I have made my living as a musician from the South for over 40 years -I have had the privilege to perform with many "acts" around the South East including "Telluride","Jeff & Susan Sauls", "Dick's Hat band" , "Cross","Franky Velvet and The Mighty Veltones" , "Rick Carter', "Jimmy Hall", "Bo Didily", Lou Christy,Marilee Rush,Pat Upton, as well as lots of other Acts and have been involved with the opening acts for such artist as Bob Dylan , Cheap Trick , Charlie Daniels ,Sammy Kershaw-I sing ,as well as play --electric bass, upright bass, acc guitar, ele guitar, harmonica,even a little banjo-if it has strings I'll try to play it seems like it has always been that way I have been with many acts around the South East over the last 40 years many of the musicians I have know I have lost contact with .I am hoping this page will help me to find some of them once again to restore old friendships. I have worked out of Atlanta Ga., Macon Ga , Muscle Shoals Al., and now I am living and working out of Birmingham Alabama. I kinda retired a few years back to finish rasing my family (and to take care of my elderly parents who both lived to almost 90 years of age ) now the kids are grown(21 & 26) and out of the house . I feel it is time to do a little more music so I am trying to get back into it . God has been way better to me than I could ever deserve and with his help and Blessings I hope to continue to enjoy and hopefully use the talents "He" has given me . I hope you will find what I do enjoyable as I will, as time allows, put up some more music on this page and try to change it on a regular basis ALSO AS A SHAMELESS PLUG TO HELP ME PAY THE BILLS PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING I am avaiable for bookings -as a bass player(sideman) most any style, as a solo --I do all types of gigs and usualy play accoustic guitar and sing ---------I also have many tracks that I can perform with if you need a full band sound but don't have the money to hire a whole band For anyone intrested in booking me either solo or as a bass sideman please e-mail me through this site if you see me in a venue playing somewhere please come check me out I hope to see you at some of my Live preformances soomJoe BAS A SOLO PERFORMER I DO AROUND 150 SHOWS PER YEAR and also do a few gigs as the bass player for different groups as well as a a duo with my friend Brandon Peoples (see his site below) in this duo he plays a mean upright bass/and some vocals while I do acc guitar & harmonica, and vocals I am real excited about this and if you can please check it out we have been getting a teriffic responce wherever we play !!!! thanks , Joe
