DANIEL JOSEPH
Completely obsessed with making music since early childhood, Tennessee-born, Texas bred singer/songwriter Daniel Joseph—who is currently celebrating the release of his self-titled solo debut on Wunderlux Records--was jamming onstage with his uncle at age five and by seven was singing every Sunday with his mom at church.
While he grew up completely self-taught, Joseph received a vocal scholarship from Tarleton State University in Stephenville, Texas; the first song he sang in class was an Italian song which he had to do in dramatic operatic style. Inspired by the Southern culture where families “pick and grin” and jam on front porches, he dropped out after a semester and pursued his love for rock by launching his first band, Element. The group, which later evolved into another rock unit called Modern Day Relief, cultivated a major local following around his hometown of Denton, Texas (where they were a fixture at Rick’s) and the Dallas/Ft. Worth area and began opening gigs for popular Lone Star State Bands like Bowling For Soup, Edgewater and Tripping Daisy.
After a transitional, soul-searching period, Joseph returns with a completely different acoustic/alternative approach on his debut, which was recorded at Reel Time Audio in Denton and engineered and produced by Grammy Award Winner Eric Delegard (Cross Canadian Ragweed, Deep Blue Something, Edgewater, Bowling For Soup). The singer credits his wife Aimee for encouraging him to get back in the groove and write songs that were true to his heart. He reached back a few years to his early influences and emerged with a winning collection whose songs are currently being played on college, commercial AAA and NPR stations. Joseph’s key markets so far are Eugene, Oregon (KRVM 91.9), Auburn, Alabama (WQNR 99.9), Williamsburg, Virginia (WRRW 100.9), Fredericksburg, Texas (KFAN 107.9) and Truckee, California (KTKE 101.5). His grass roots radio campaign continues in full swing.
“The kind of music I’m making today was a part of me long before I started Element,” he says. “I grew up not only listening to my mom sing in church, but also to everyone from Tom Petty to John Mellencamp to Motown. With those influences, doing the acoustic soul thing just became a natural progression for me. Though I grew up only an hour away from the city, it felt at times like the ‘middle of nowhere’. People always talking about getting out and the things they would do if they lived somewhere else. Looking back at those days, I realize that there were great times and terrible times. There were people who made me feel confined, and people who helped me feel free. This album encompasses the many influences and emotions of those days. Some songwriters are more concerned with creating a certain style, but I believe in being an open book and letting people see who I really am.”
After composing a handful of songs he felt confident about, Joseph debuted them at some local open mics and coffeehouses around Denton and Ft. Worth, and a friend introduced him to Steve Thomas, who was starting his Wunderlux label. Thomas loved what he heard and immediately put his money where his mouth is, funding the singer’s debut and hooking him up with Delegard. One listen to the tracks on Daniel Joseph and it’s easy to hear why Thomas and Delegard became so excited.
“At some point in my life, I’ve lived every emotion and word that I sing,” says Joseph. The most beautiful thing about having the chance to establish myself as a solo artist is the opportunity to get on the road and play for more people and then keep recording more albums. Contrary to what you read about all the crises in the music business, this is a good time for singer-songwriters. I’m living proof that musicians just have to keep hope alive and writing and creating good music. In the end, I truly believe great songs will always prevail.”
