Joel Clyde

There's been a lot of water under the bridge. I've always been a musician first, last and always. I was born one. A guitar has been my constant companion since I was 5 years old. I learned to play keyboards and the other 12 instruments that I play in High School. I started writing songs in my early teens. Music helped me to meet people and overcome my shyness and feelings of inadequacy, cheered me up when I was sad, gave me courage when I was scared and provided an outlet for my inner thoughts that I could never articulate. Now, I live in Southeast Tennessee, where the clear, clean streams and old-growth forests continue to inspire me. And my biggest thrill of all is performing for you.....thanks for listening.
