Pennsylvania native and traveling musician Average Joey is bringing his genre-defying sound to Springfield for a one-night performance on January 11. Known for his unique blend of cheeky country tunes, storytelling folk songs, and punk rock banjo, Joey has made a name for himself as a road warrior, living full-time on tour.
His music is deeply rooted in lyricism, combining personal vulnerability with sharp political commentary. Whether through his folk-influenced melodies or punk-infused rhythms, Joey’s songs tackle both the personal and the political, speaking truth to power while encouraging introspection.
Joey’s live shows are a dynamic experience, mixing musical performance with spoken word poetry and acapella group singing. His engaging style blends a variety of instrumentation and presentation to captivate audiences, while his lyrics, filled with dark humor and blunt honesty, spark both laughter and reflection.
Fans can catch this thought-provoking performance at Ruthie’s C-Street Bar, 504 E Commercial St, from 6:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. on January 11. Joey’s performance challenges us to confront the absurdities of the world and inspires action toward a better future.
