I spoke with Joe Grushecky about his extensive
career making music with his band, the Iron City Houserockers; on his own,
through an extensive and impressive catalog of solo recordings; and with
luminaries such as Bruce Springsteen and many others. Joe is not unlike his
music: straightforward, socially conscious, and with great empathy for those facing
hard times. In Joe’s case, he also works outside of music to make a difference –
he works with special needs children and as you’d expect, doesn’t back down from
taking on the hardest cases.
After over 40 years making music, Joe is still going strong -sometimes on his own, and sometimes fronting Joe Grushecky and the Houserockers. He has a new solo album ready
to drop, a live Houserockers album on the way, and numerous other projects on
the horizon. The Houserockers continuously tour - make sure you check them out. And make sure you check out Joe’s website to learn more about
his iconic career – and to gain easy access to Joe’s great music.
