The Joe Stamm Band makes countrified roots-rock with an emphasis on the roots, drawing on Stamm’s small-town upbringing in rural Illinois, for a sound that blends heartland hooks with Nashville twang. It’s a sound that’s taken the songwriter from the college apartment where he strummed his first chords to venues beyond the Midwest, sharing shows with personal heroes like Kris Kristofferson and Chris Knight along the way.
With his debut LP, The Good & The Crooked (& The High & The Horny), Stamm begins building his own legacy, leading his band of road warriors through an album rooted in all-American storytelling and guitar-driven swagger.
