From the haunting cinematic noir of "Kenji" to the gentle folk fingerpicking of "Epiphany, South Dakota," with nods to Jazz, Calypso and Western Swing, Louisiana native Joe Lima swings wildly and never misses. A CD Baby Editor's Pick.

Margot Carmichael Lester of The Gig List writes, "Joe's a true troubadour (one of a class of lyric poets and poet-musicians) with a voice that's so smooth and warm you just want to wrap it around you like a cashmere throw."

Michelle E. Malik of NoHoLA calls Joe Lima "a folksy balladeer...with a full bodied sound that evokes the wiles of a Southern, summertime breeze."

John Scalzi of Indiecrit.com writes, "Let Go and Let Joe is funny, but it's at least partially that way because the lyrics are sharply observed even as they're amusingly mordant."

From the comic to the tragic and breathlessly back again, Joe's tunes are sweet, sour and savory slices of life, served up with passion and a chunk of spicy pepper jack on the side.

Joe's second CD is available now from CD Baby. We strongly recommend you check out this folky, self-titled extravaganza!
