   About Joe Norkus






These are some songs I have recorded over the years at home, either on 4-tracks or on my computer. There will be a day when I can get my friends to play these with me in a room with 20+ people watching. I also sing & play guitar in the band Embarrassing Fruits.

All of my records are recorded at home and are available for free download. If you would like a hard copy you can GO HERE, or come to a show and buy one. Thanks for listening!

What is TTWD Fest?

TTWD is an all day music festival held at the Old Gilliam Mill Park outside of Sanford, NC on August 8, 2009. The park is a replica of a 19th century grist mill, and it is a great place to see music. Bands play in an amphitheatre style setting on a stage that looks like the front porch of an old shack. It has sort of an “Austin City Limits” feel. There are campsites with electricity, running water, bathrooms, and showers. There is also a full kitchen onsite, and food and beverages will be provided by Bella Bistro.

Point your GPS to 4613 Carbonton Rd, SANFORD, North Carolina 27330 (This is the closest physical address to the park. The park itself is on Hwy 42 W / Carbonton Road in between Wakefield Road and Pickard Road.)
