Yes. Joe Smith is my real name.

I’m the happy-go-lucky type person who likes to dabble in everything that comes within sight.

I like to draw…

I also bake things….

My Mother was a baker her whole life, but, she never really taught me HOW to bake. What she taught me was how to get up and going EVERY DAY and never stop. 4 Kids. A Dad that was as dedicated as he was self-distructive (he lit himself on fire twice in two years doing the same thing….fixing my car. Fell out of a tree and broke his leg even though at his size (6’0″ 300 lbs) he shouldn’t EVER have been IN THE TREE to being with, fixing a cable wire so Mrs. Johnson down the road could watch her ‘stories’; Got stabbed breaking up a heroin dealer’s sale in our neighborhood. You should’ve seen the other guy.)

I’m a product of those two, so, it’s not pretty, but, it’s a life, and I’m grateful for every second of it.

I may have been a singer in a band once, but don’t hold it against me. Those were different times, and I learned my lesson. I still write music, but unlike the past century I don’t think there’s a market for my music, I really DO just make it for myself.

Take this song for example. I wrote it in about 5 minutes and went over to my friend Tim Mayock’s house to record it with he and his brother John and Chris Eddy. I listen to it all the time. It cracks me up. You….maybe not so much. But I hear the joy in the kazoo that you might not. Hey….I didn’t like LA LA LAND. It won an Oscar. I get it, man. I get it.
