Click here to visit The Joel van Vliet Show on youtube!! Download Joel's Album from iTunes Now!!Joel van Vliet has been making sweet music for longer than he can remember (he really can remember when it all began and how, but that doesn't come off as poetically). His out of the box creativity combined with his incredible vocal ability manifest themselves in a beautiful, completely original sound.Mad Scientist PHD is Joel's latest effort, his second of two original albums. In this concept album he follows the career of a crazy doctor. The stories are facinating, the songs are crazy, inspiring and wonderful and the production is at times fantastic, ridiculous or poetic.Joel is currently working on his next project entitled Autumn, Winter, Spring, Summer. He likes to think of his equivalent to Vivaldi's Four Seasons (but thats more or less because its about the four seasons). It is a collection of love songs and life songs that span the year in word and in tone.Joel has also been making videos that showcase his off beat sense of humour and just another aspect of his performance and personality. He's always been interested in comedy and this is just another outlet for him.Check out Joel van Vliet (dot com) !

Exhibit A: Mad Scientist    I may be a mad scientist, but I still insist that all you pretty nurses wash your hands. I know there's blood everywhere, and there's a stench up in the air, but...
