Take the musical traditions of Folk, Bluegrass, and country, let them simmer over a few dozen Canadian winters, add a little virtuoso woodshed fingerstyle guitar and lyrics from life, and you have Joe Stanton! Joe’s philosophy of “playing wherever they’ll listen” has taken him and his Martin D-28, on a 30-year journey from his favourite haunts of home on the Sunshine coast, to a concert in a hot air balloon over the Swiss Alps, to The Kerrville Folk Festival in Texas and The World Finger-Picking Championships in Winfield, Kansas.
Joe’s fingerstyle playing, likened to that of his guitar heroes Leo Kottke and Bruce Cockburn, combined with his inspired songwriting has resulted in four CDs, all receiving radio airplay in Canada, the U.S., Europe, and Australia. Tonight Joe Stanton does what he loves best — writing and performing acoustic music!
