Joel's music incorporates the styles and influences of many Urban and R&B artists to bring a style that is original and unique. Joel's love for many different musical genres combined with the ability to rap aswell as sing, means that Joel's tracks often vary in style and approach whether it be an Uptempo R&B track, a soft ballad, or a HipHop/Rap track.
Joel is a 21 year old R&B singer/songwriter from the UK. Caught up in the intense rise of Urban music during his childhood he began performing at only 6 years of age, inspired by the musical talent of Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson.
Attending stagecoach and playing lead roles in local performances and talent shows developed Joel's ability to act, sing and dance at a young age. These experiences were what fuelled his desire to begin writing material of his own.
In April 2008, Joel released his debut album 'Curious' which attracted much attention and has sold over 2000 digital copies to date. Fresh off the back of this album, Joel teamed with top producers Capo Decina and James Kinnear to release his newest piece of work, an upbeat R&B song titled 'Be With Me'. The song is the heartfelt appeal from a man, to the girl that he can't have.
At only 21 years of age, Joel has entered the music scene as a versatile vocalist, talented songwriter and skilled dancer. Joel is neither from some producers A-list, or part of the country capitals flourishing Urban music scene, but from the North-West, and determined to prove that persistence and charisma still have a place in the music industry.
