Tell us about your music career, your band name, musical background, experience and skills.
I have been playing rock & roll since I was 13 years of age. I formed my first band when I was 16 years-old. We were called “OZ” and performed music from Led Zeppelin, Kansas, Neil Young, Charlie Daniel, Boston, Blue Oyster Cult, The Allman Brothers and Bruce Springsteen.
I relocated to New York City in 1984. In New York, I founded an indie rock band called the Jury. We had limited success with our first EP release entitled “Shyboy” in 1988 (Kangaroo records).
I relocated to Vienna in May of 2000 and have been performing in various covert bands focusing on the music of Ray Charles, James Brown, Stevie Wonder and more recently Billy Joel.
Currently, I am promoting my own music with Joey Green Band here in Vienna. I am a prolific songwriter, lyricist and play piano, hammond organ and sing.
“Love, Love, Love” is Joey Green Band’s most recent offering.
