Hailing from the tiny town of Temagog, on the Mid North Coast of NSW, guitar genius Joe Robinson has been wowing crowds with his playing ability since he was 13 – drawing praise and admiration from his industry heroes for his prodigious skills.
Still at the tender age of 21, yet now based in Nashville, Joe has a list of credentials that would make most musicians three times his senior envious. Playing stages at prestigious gatherings like Bonnaroo Music Festival; being named Best New Talent in Guitar Player Magazine’s Readers Poll and making the Top 50 Best Guitarists list in Australian Guitar to name a few.
Over the years the gifted young virtuoso has redefined himself as a budding pop-world visionary, deftly walking a tightrope between the instrumental music that’s put him in the spotlight and a unique fusion of vocally based rock, blues, jazz and R&B that’s entirely his own.
International touring keeps Robinson’s schedule tight these days, but his yearning for home brought him back to Australia late last year to play Woodford Folk Festival and will see the artist return this summer off the back of a sold out European tour for a select run of dates to launch his new EP Toe Jam (available October 12th).
