Joe Craven is not just an entertaining musician and fashion insultant with a penchant for the mischievous, he is a teacher and student all at once and he will draw you into his performance as though you’re part of the show itself. Joe is always looking for the next expression or breath or object to make music with. His gift of gab is unprecedented and his musical knowledge impressive. Joe’s openness and expression of gratitude for the gifts he shares make it all the more fun for him to share with his audience. ‘Everything Joe touches turns to music,’ says David Grisman, who Joe played with for almost 17 years. No one who saw Joe wring a percussion concerto from his garbage-bag raincoat during a downpour at the Strawberry Music Festival could disagree. is not just an entertaining musician and fashion insultant with a penchant for the mischievous, he is a teacher and student all at once and he will draw you into his performance as though you’re part of the show itself.
