Joel Pearl - Bassist for Hire

As a bassist with a plethora of experience, any band who hires Joel will be treated to a professional musician who comes prepared and on time, excited and eager to entertain with the band and for the crowd. He keeps his lines of communication open, offers input whenever asked, and works to be a team player for any event.

Whether it's a vest and tie at a wedding or corporate event, a flannel shirt for a bar, a v-neck and denim for country and rock, Joel will always dress the part for a gig!

Joel Pearl has been a session bassist for nearly a decade and has performed with musicians across genres and styles. He has toured internationally and has worked with a number of established talents in the Canadian music scene, including producer Peter J. Moore.
