Solo Joe Acoustic Show!
A one-man band, proud United States Army veteran, and professional entertainer for the past 45 years. I specialize in baby boomer and Gen-X music as well as performing other select hits from Sinatra to Nirvana! Chosen from a catalog of over 600 songs that span 6 decades and
multiple diverse genres, no matter what your musical taste, you’ll be thoroughly entertained at any Solo Joe Show! Cheers! 🍻
Although Joe performs alone, “THE SOLO JOE ‘BOOMER BAND!” is the latest nickname given him by some his most loyal fans…Why?
Tons of Classic Rock, Mellow Rock, Outlaw Country, Big Band, Swing, Grunge, Dance…All the hits, all the time! “Everything, from Sinatra to Nirvana”, 40's through 2021! A diverse solo performer that sounds like a full band without any of the excessive volume issues that can sometimes destroy performance in smaller venues.
Boasting a state-of-the-art sound system and a catalog of over 600 songs chosen from widely varying genres, Solo Joe is a long-time favorite at Country Clubs, Casinos, PAC’s, High-end restaurants, Corporate/Municipal events as well as many other types
of live music venues in the Northeast, across the USA, and around the world.
As a veteran of the United States Army elite 82nd Airborne division, Solo Joe has had the privilege of having toured internationally w/Navy Entertainment (Sigonella NAS 2, Navy Base at Naples Italy, Guantanamo Bay Cuba, Abu Dhabi UAE). He’s entertained 1000’s of American armed service people around the globe for the past 30 years.
Having fulfilled multiple contracts as lounge entertainment with various major cruise lines and casinos globally, his act is highly polished, personable and engaging. Always taking requests and playing dedications he's performed everything from "The Wheels On The Bus go ‘round and ‘round" for toddlers at family-friendly events to “Born to be wild” and “This Life” at Sturgis bike week for cast members from “Sons of Anarchy”.
Hearing his occasional between-song banter and anecdotal humor, it quickly becomes evident that he thoroughly enjoys his job as much as the audience enjoys his performance.
Solo Joe has been a featured performer at Orlando FL Walt Disney World’s EPCOT Theme Park on the American Garden Stage for 8 years in a row performing week-long runs with the "Sounds Like Summer" concert series.
When you see a Solo Joe Show, you'll feel as though you're sitting in your living room listening to the original artist performing some of your favorite tunes just the way you remember hearing them! “Solo Joe” also known as
"THE SOLO JOE ‘BOOMER BAND!” Check the videos to see exactly what you get when you hire him. Thanks for taking the time to read this and God bless!!
