Charlotte-based singer/songwriter, is a purveyor of the story song. Joe's songs fall somewhere between coffee house folk and alt-country troubadour, drawing from influences ranging from Springsteen to Isbell and Petty to Earle.
Joe's material tackles both social and political issues, with an eye to the past and a reflection of the present. According to Middleton, “I wanna create art that celebrates justice and calls out injustice.”
His wise baritone voice and warm finger-style playing, provide a lush soundscape for these very listener-friendly tunes.
After years of fronting various bands, Middleton ultimately stepped out on his own in 2019 with his first solo recording, Highway Tremolo. Joe was awarded Summit Coffee Songwriter of the year for 2021. He is currently working on material his next project.
