InspiredWordNYC Presents Singer/Songwriter Joe Geni/Album Release at BMK

InspiredWordNYC Presents Singer/Songwriter Joe Geni/Album Release at Brooklyn Music Kitchen in the heart of Clinton Hill, BK.

My name is Joe Geni. I make music. I soundtrack the Anthropocene.
I’m a high tenor with a 3.5 octave range. I’m a songwriter. I’m a multi-instrumentalist. I’m a producer. I’m a recovering DJ. I am interested in sounds of all kinds.
I’ve spent years refining my craft and building my own sound for my unique voice. I write songs about climate change, mass extinctions, love, regret, urban infrastructure, transportation networks, dinosaurs, geopolitics, modern art, that sort of thing. I have made my home in New York City.

Album: EDMONTONIA
There is, in my view, a general shortage of records about dinosaurs. This is my attempt to rectify the problem.
Edmontonia was a low-built, car-sized Cretaceous-era creature covered in bony plates and spikes. A monstrous, carapaced brute. I had a toy of it as a child. Later when I first visited the American Museum of Natural History in New York I saw the fossil of a real one for the first time. It is imposing.
This is an animal that knew exactly where life’s threats lay, and how to defend itself against them. It’s quite inspiring, really. For humans today, living in these times of fear, upheaval, and disorientation, it’s not so simple.
So I wrote this album about armored dinosaurs, armored people, extinction, regret, love, loss, and the sense that the world is evolving too fast for us to keep up and avoid extinction. I hope you enjoy.
