Album: #MYNAMEISJOETHOMAS by Joe (2016)
Genre: contemporary r&b
Record Label: BMG
Format: CD

Description: Two decades in the game have made Joseph Lewis Thomas R&B’s consummate showman. His nuanced, versatile vocals link the discreet caresses of “Lean Into It” to the high notes of “Can’t Run From Love”. It takes heroic talent to cover icons, but Joe fully inhabits and personalises his versions of Adele’s “Hello” and “Our Anthem”, a patriotic spin on Otis Redding’s “Try a Little Tenderness”.

Artist Background: Joe was born on July 5, 1973 in Columbus, Georgia, Georgia and later moved to Opelika, Alabama. The son of two preachers, Joe spent much time in church singing, playing guitar, and even directing the choir. He was influenced in his early career by gospel performers such as: The Winans, Commissioned, and Vanessa Bell Armstrong. Joe also grew to love soul legends like Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye as well as contemporary stars such as Bobby Brown and Keith Sweat. Emerged in the 1970s era.
