ABOUT THE RECORD 'MOON KING'
Pulling influences from
Tom Waits to
Radiohead to Elliott Smith, Joseph creates a collection of songs that compose an impressive soundscape, further demonstrating his skills as an important producer and songwriter in the indie singer/songwriter genre. Moon King was recorded and produced largely in a solo effort, but unlike his debut LP, Joseph recruited the talents of his touring band to help capture the sound and feel that makes up the beautiful chemistry of the recordings.

"I like the grit in his vocals and the songwriting is very strong. Nice to see that he gives as much thought to the lyrics as to the instrumentation. That he did this all himself
makes this doubly impressive." -Doug Brod, editor, Spin Magazine
"He probably wrote a song about every feeling anyone has ever experienced — big or small, infamous or secret" -Seraphina, Buzz Bands LA
"The album includes "Arsonist Blues," a song that landed him an offer from Original Signal records and has him sounding like the grittier, spiritual successor to Jeff Buckley's throne."
