"Batting it out of the park with nasty juke joint saxophone."
-- Blue Suede NewsHonkin', growlin', screamin', and wailin', Joey the Saint’s hallmark tenor style has become a fixture around the Pacific Northwest from roadside bars and juke joints to the Gorge Amphitheatre. His aggressive sound, electric stage presence, and showmanship hail back to the 40's and 50's honkers and shouters.
Joey cut his teeth in the Seattle Blues and R&B scene as a saxophonist and vocalist with the internationally acclaimed jump blues combo Tim Casey & the Bluescats. He has performed with such legends as Frankie Lee, Charlie Musselwhite, Rusty Zinn, John Nemeth, Mitch Woods, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, and the JB’s, and has been nominated for Best Horn by the Washington Blues Society for his work with local heroes including Polly O'Keary, Nick Vigarino, and The Fabulous Wailers. He is featured prominently on the soundtrack of the cult horror smash RetarDEAD from 4321 Films, and remains a steady call for recording projects in Seattle and L.A.
Joey is currently available as a saxophonist and keyboardist for sessions, lessons, subs, and roadwork.
