Born Joseph Brent Bagale on March 22nd 1983 in Rochester, NY. Joe Bagale is one of the most original and creative artists of his generation. A 25 year old singer-songwriter/composer, multi-instrumentalist, and producer, who is pushing the envelope of what we know as "POP" music. His compositions feature the soul of R&B and the heart of rock, redefining the San Francisco music scene. The long-awaited self titled debut, combines Joe's diverse influences into a soulful expression of sound. Not only has Joe written and produced the album, he also played keyboards, drumset, aux. percussion, guitars, bass, synths, samples and sang all lead and backup vocals. Tracks such as "Mrs. Oh" and "Call on Me" reveal true inspiration and are speaking to a growing legion of fans. Born and raised in Rochester, NY, Joe attended the Eastman School of Music as a jazz-performance major in drumset. His musical experiences in Rochester included lessons from Rich Thompson, Steve Gadd, Jack DeJohnette, Ron Carter (bass), Clay Jenkins (trumpet) and his father, John Bagale. At the young age of 17, he received the "Outstanding Rhythm Section Award" in the "Essentially Ellington Competition," presented by Wynton Marsalis. While focusing on drumset, Joe was also developing outstanding skills on the piano, guitar, and bass, at the same time developing his vocal and compositional ability. Leaving Eastman early, Joe moved to San Francisco in search of his calling, where he now leads his own group, The Dirty Workshop, both on guitar and from behind the drum kit, and is also a full time member of Bay Area bands: Disappear Incompletely, Matt Berkeley Trio, Blicker and the Jazz Mafia Collective. Joe has a diverse fan base, having appeared for thousands at festivals and venues along both coasts including Lincoln Center's Avery Fischer Hall in NYC, Promise For Peace in Novato,CA, the downtown Berkeley Jazz Festival and the San Francisco North Beach Jazz Festival. He has shared the stage with the likes of Antibalas, Benevento-Russo Duo, Will Bernard's Motherbug, A.L.O., and has performed with Terrill Stafford, Christian McBride, Eric Reed, and Fred Wesley. With an album in the works, and supporting shows planned for this summer and fall, Joe Bagale is moving forward and gaining notoriety. The launch of www.JoeBagale.com has spurred a growing interest in this exciting artist. By connecting with his audience, and displaying phenomenal talent, Joe Bagale is emerging at the forefront of modern original music. Mass-market appeal hasn't been blended with soul like this since the heydays of Stevie Wonder and Steely Dan. <a
