THE JOE PUBLIC make a sound that defies categorisation, prompting Mike Scott of Unknown Records to say –
' It's not often I get to say that I've heard something truly original, having been a music reviewer for the best part of 40 years. THE JOE PUBLIC, however, are forcing me to do just that with their own distinctive brand of rock – a sound unlike anything else on the scene at the moment. Technically brilliant, creatively diverse, and filled with emotion, this four-piece from the South-West of England have left me blown away – and will do the same for you '.
Reviews for THE JOE PUBLIC…
‘They outshone all the other acts and are definitely a band to watch out for in the future. Their strength of style, material and delivery should prove to be a great grounding for a very promising career’ – John Higgins, BBC
'Strong classic rock noises going on, nicely constructed, keep up the hard work' – Simon Williams (aka Mr Bongo), Head of Fierce Panda Records
'This young band showed why there has been so much interest in them; they are one of the best bands I have seen for a long time. I look forward to seeing more of them' – The Somerset Standard
