NOW THAT'S GOOD

"It's hard to step in any direction in the Phoenix area without finding a Joe Myers fan. His incredible guitar playing is legendary in these parts. He even attained the New Times Best Local Guitarist title in 1999 without playing a single show here that year. Now that's good." -- Miss Amy Young, Java Magazine



Myers' versatility has led him to work in film, festivals, and production projects. He has long worked in tandem with renowned composer Brent Michael Davids (Kronos Quartet, Joffrey Ballet), creating original scores for "Last of the Mohicans", and for Sherman Alexie's film, "The Business of Fancy Dancing", and performing live at the World Premier of "Silent Enemy" at the 1996 Santa Fe Film Fest.

He has shared the stage with Daniel Lanois, David Wilcox, Adrian Legg, Todd Rundgren, Tori Amos, Adrian Belew, The Beach Boys, Warren Zevon and a list of other talented artists.

Myers has also been awarded New Times’ "Best of Phoenix" soloist 4 times.

Myers' originality extends to this CD-packaging approach. His latest album, Troubled Notes from the Hotel Chelsea, is housed in a giant matchbook. His other releases come in handmade wooden boxes and round tin canisters. Myers' music can't be put in a one-size-fits-all box.
