In his twenties he started a band with his closest friends called Shayna and the Bulldog ("SatB") (https://shayna.bandcamp.com/), an Americana / Indie Rock band.

Somewhere along the way, Joel started a children's band called, The Hoots, (www.hootquarters.com). For this project, he's written four albums of material, won countless awards - including: a Parent's Choice Award - sold many records, and played hundreds of shows. Joel started producing an educational children's video series called, Hoot Quarters, starring an owl, who thinks he knows everything, but doesn't, and the The Hoots, who help said owl, Oliver, along the right path. Recently Joel started writing some new "grown up" music. In the summer of 2019 he started to play these songs out in public. They are the first songs he would consider to be solo songs - outside of The Hoots -that he has written and performed.

What can I say; I LOVED THIS SHOW!
Additionally, I'll let you in on a secret, this was the first time that I listened to, not one, but two complete Rap songs -- and enjoyed them. :)
Loved the show and thoroughly enjoyed Cory. Tell him what Michael J Fox once said; "I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence, I can reach for; perfection is God's business." He was excellent.
the October 3rd show was way too short. What a mellow and superbly classy hour that just blew by. Thanks!
