“Americana meets fingerstyle guitar”
Take the musical traditions of Folk, Bluegrass, country and let them simmer over a few dozen Canadian winters, add a little virtuoso woodshed fingerstyle guitar, lyrics from life, and you have Joe Stanton.

From the World Finger picking championships in Kansas, to ski resorts of Switzerland, Festivals across North America, coffee houses, concerts, bars, trains and even a hot air balloon, Joe has been playing his Martin D28“ wherever they’ll listen”.
