Acoustic Tune-Ups at Joe's Garage

A message to fans of Joe's Garage - You're probably wondering why there aren't any current shows. Joe had a motorcycle accident in Italy breaking his leg (tip and fib). He's working to get back walking again. There probably won't be a show until towards the end of the year. Thanks for your patience.

You saw him at Joe's Garage first - Watch Anthony Arya on Adam Levine's team on the current season of the "Voice"

Nu-Blu Play Joe's Garage on Saturday, August 4th. Doors open at 7pm (not before) and music at 8PM. BYOB and a dish to share if you wish. $20 per person suggested donation. Over 21 please. Hailing from Siler City, NC, the textbook definition of a picturesque small southern town, Nu-Blu’s heart and soul is husband-and-wife duo Daniel and Carolyn Routh. Carolyn’s caramel-coated soprano is one of the band’s defining traits, at times a tender lullaby, at times a freight train h...eaded straight for you, but always unwinding a surprising tale. Daniel is the group’s backbone, a multi-instrumentalist and vocalist who also handles band management. Calder Baker on banjo, and Justin Harrison on fiddle/mandolin round out the quartet’s warm, layered, American roots sound. Together they deliver upbeat, blazing-fingers pick work just as well as gentle, heartwarming ballads, and they do it all with a natural togetherness that can’t be faked, forged over hundreds of shows on the road.

Great show with Jonah Smith last night! What a voice!!

Jonah Smith plays Joe's Garage, 308 6th Ave., San Mateo on Sunday, March 19th. Doors open at 6PM (and not before), and music starts at 7PM Jonah Smith is a critically acclaimed singer-songwriter based in Los Angeles, CA. He pulls from the deep well of American blues and many of its offshoots, including soul, country, and folk. Smith is essentially a songwriter with the voice of a soul singer. In 2014, Jonah Smith auditioned with his band on the NBC show, "America's Got Talen...t".. He has shared the stage with other artists like Los Lobos & Little Feat. He has released several records including the eponymous debut on Relix Records, Lights On, Little Known Cure and In The Kitchen. At its best, the singer Jonah Smith’s amalgam of American Roots and soul evokes The Band (Garth Hudson’s accordion on an early record didn’t hurt). The New Yorker Mr. Smith’s folk songs are equally well suited to downtown lounges and rural front porches. New York Times Easygoing, soulful music, which calls to mind J.J. Cale, early Van Morrison and Ben Harper Wall St. Journal BYOB and a suggested donation of $20 per person
