Meet a refreshing change to pop music: Joe Brooks. Sure… he could melt the hearts of girls around the world, but this serious musician’s been working away at perfecting his talent for the past six years…
Typical Teen
Joe Brooks first found his love of music at the age of 16. He was a typical teen living in England who enjoyed playing soccer and tennis. After his mom took him to a blues concert, Joe was inspired to learn guitar and create his own music. Joe wrote songs and posted them on MySpace. Before he knew it, he was the UK's highest ranked unsigned artist, receiving over 30,000 plays a day of songs he recorded in his bedroom!!! After getting offers from different labels, Joe landed a management deal and signed to Lava/Republic in 2009.
Gimmick-Free
Lots of artists are hyped and buzzed about online… but not Joe. The secret to HIS success has been his dedication to his music. The proof: his first single, Superman, has almost 10 million MySpace plays to date, and his first two UK tours totally sold out, without the help of a label or publisher!
The Music
Joe’s sound covers elements of rock, pop and blues and reflects his own personal tastes, from John Mayer to Ray Charles.
