about
Here is a Power-Pop-Garage-Pub-Rock anthem to raise a glass to as we commiserate about the crummy jobs we have to go back to every Monday morning. Fans of guitar-pop and blue collar rock will want to grab this download.
Take my advice... Don't give up on your dreams and get stuck in an unfulfilling job along the way. You are worth more than you know... the world needs your talent, your gift. I believe in you! Go for it!
REVIEWS:
WHIPSERIN' & HOLLERIN' - (Camden, London UK) - 9 out of 10 Stars "A prime slice of Blue-collar rock... in the mold of early Springsteen or Johnny Cougar.... Real easy to stick on repeat and hear over and over again... the sort of song you can punch the air to."
DAGGER (Denver, CO USA) - "Armed with a guitar and a booming voice (and a terrific backing band) Joe and the band plow through this cool nugget ('Stuck In A Job') and sound like a hepped-up Nick Lowe or perhaps a fully-energized Willie Nile... a terrific song that’s hard not to tap your foot to."
HERE COMES THE FLOOD (The Netherlands) - "Playing no-frills pub-rock is a lot harder than it seems. It is all about the groove, the rhythm, and blue-collar lyrics. As a musician you have to live it to make it real. Enter Joe Normal & The Anytown'rs."
TESTIMONIAL (Alabama, USA) - "I have long known that the Northeast USA is the last bastion for real Rock and Roll! I can now add JOE NORMAL to this distinguished list: Bruce Springsteen, Jesse Malin, Willie Nile..." - Steven Hassenplug

I saw Alvvays open for CourtneyBarnett 2016 'n checked out this album that week on Spotify, made me a fan for life. They make brilliant records if you ask me. Great vocals, songs, guitar parts.

The original release without the last two tracks. Sloan is hecka-talented, I'd say he's the next Paul McCartney. I'm grateful to find a young artist/producer so inspiring, good natured, and melodic.

Christmassy Music
