NEWS:
Our 1986 'locked in the closet' classic "The Sphinx" hit #1 on the Garage Punk chart in the summer of 2000, or as it shall come to be known, the "Summer of JOE".
"Drinkin' Beer and Talkin' About Sex" -- a #1 hit on the Folk Punk chart in early 2000, and was the featured selection on the first day of 2000, the dawning of the JOE millenium.

If you especially like our funny/garage/punk/folkpunk songs, we suggest you get the DAM CD JOE RAW: Flesh Eating Virus, available on this site!

Bite-sized album blurbs:

• JOE 1: official debut release goin' all the way back to the mid 80's. Basement rock never felt more underground.
• JOE 2: contains smash MP3 folkpunk anthem "Drinkin' Beer and Talkin' about Sex". Jazzy and progressive basement Pop here too.
• JOE 3: The final studio release from original JOE band lineup. Mostly folkrock songs recorded in intimate settings.
• RunTroutRun: The Broomall Years: a best-of compilation from the first three JOE albums. Emphasis on our folkrock and pop. If you like that side of JOE and want a nice sampler, go for it!
• JOE RAW: Flesh Eating Virus -- ultimate compliation of JOE's punk/garage and joke songs. Bound to make you laugh, make you cry, make you angry that lofi music this RAW is permitted on the Internet!
• Evolutionary Cul De Sac:Marks the official addition of Stacy Tartar Esch, turning JOE into a power trio. A voice to die for and folkrock guitar skills to match. Recorded over many years in live one-take closet/studio settings.
• Are You Ready, Nigel?: More one-take wonders. Solid, 90's alternative poprock, with joke songs to spare.
• Don't Get Me Tunafied!: our latest CD of live, in-studio recordings from the mid 90's. Killer garage and folkrock on here -- enjoy it in the spirit in which it was made.

Nifty spinoff sites -- if you like JOE, you'll like Jim & Stacy Esch's mp3.com page. and J Ray music, individual band member sites.
