Last 7 now. Would be wise to bag one rather than try to watch the gig from the bar.....through a doorway. Exceptional choice of beers, mind. Worse places to spend an evening.

Handful of tickets left for this Friday at Horsforth Brewery. wegottickets.com/event/692209/ Joe Zux and meself are raising funds for Horsforth Pantry and Horsforth Town Of Sanctuary. See you down the front x

Just behind my chair are 4 vinyl/CD bundles that get in the way when I try to stand up. Please put me out of my misery. It's the last remaining vinyl copies of the album. joesolomusic.bandcamp.com/album/punk-r... A full house is ok. An almost empty one is triggering. If you get it, you get it.

'Punk Rock Prepared Us For This' CDs still available, though the vinyl has SOLD OUT. Next stop on the tour is Horsforth Brewery on Friday. See you down the front x joesolomusic.bandcamp.com/album/punk-r...

On a mission, folks. 15 copies left on vinyl. Let's sell it out before the tour starts on Saturday. If you don't have it yet, bag it. It's special. joesolomusic.bandcamp.com/album/punk-r...

We are now badged-up and ready for April 10th. After diesel costs your ticket money will be donated to local causes, in Wakefield's case to Pontefract Community Kitchen. Be mighty fine to have your company x Get music orders in NOW as stocks are low! joesolomusic.bandcamp.com/album/punk-r...

I have six copies of 'SONGS & VERSES' left here at Solo Towers. There are no plans for a reprint. Be quick if you fancy 300-plus pages of my words.... joesolomusic.bandcamp.com/merch/songs-...

I have a few 'overs' if anyone would like an empty vinyl sleeve or lyric insert for artwork? Three left at: joesolomusic.bandcamp.com/merch/punk-r...

Probably what a lot of folks are needing right now. This song is a duet between Jess Silk and meself with a little help from the Station Chorus, but it when Rebekah Findlay joins us on fiddle that you really shift emotional gear. Absolutely stunning. joesolomusic.bandcamp.com/track/stay-p...

Full album available to stream NOW on BC. This is one of my favourites. It's a lovely bit of Jess Silk and Rebekah Findlay magic on a song about neuro-diversity and mental health. joesolomusic.bandcamp.com/track/not-al... So much more than the sum of its parts. Enjoy x

**LONDON FOLKS** Last date on the 'SONGS & VERSES' Tour with with the lyric book is at the Betsey Trotwood on Sunday 15th March and I'd love to have your company. Definitely the last talkie gig of 2026, so last chance before I start yelling at you again. wegottickets.com/event/688529/

Cracking article in support of the gig at Mr. Shaw’s House in Derby in May. Had a blast there with Jess on the Inspireography Tour in November, and I'd love to see the place packed again for Round 2. It's a small venue, so be quick!! trendng.com/local/joe-so...
