Joe Scutella has been writing songs ever since he put down a baseball in college in the mid seventies and picked up a guitar. From his embryonic performances back then at Fast Eddies in Bellingham Washington, through countless gigs in clubs, colleges, concert halls, festivals, and the occasional living room since, Joe has been singing and playing his own brand of American music. From his early days with Boston's Frederick-Martin band and DC's Bob Ortiz and Winterwood, to his own bands and as a soloist, Joe has performed throughout the country. He has been a featured performer and finalist in the new folk series of both the Kerrville folk festival (twice) and the Napa valley music festival. Joe was the winner of the Lyric theater song writer series in South Florida in 1993. An honor which lead him to a publishing deal with Senter Music in Nashville in 1994. In 94 Joe moved from South Florida to Nashville to pursue song writing full time. A couple of years later he was making a name for himself, working with producer Clyde Brooks, writing exclusively for NotStock music, and eventually for EMI. He continued writing for the country and Americana market with Talbott music before forming his own company in 2003. Joe continues to work with many luminary artists and writers, like Pat Alger, Kent Agee, Patricia Conroy, a promising young new artist Nathan Douglas, Sean Patrick McGraw and many other well known Nashville singer-songwriters. His songs have been recorded by many, including Americana artists like Donal Hinely and Ross Falzone; alt-country artists Steve Fox and Ric and Brian Butler; Universal recording artist Gabbie Nolen, and pop-R&B singers like Billy Joyce and Melodie Crittenden, as well as many many others. Joe's 1999 release "Love is a train" was his first solo project. That was followed in 2010 by his second release, Hang in there. He is busy writing and promises yet another follow up soon. In the meantime Joe performs occasionally at venues around Nashville like the Blue Bird Cafe and the Douglas Corner Cafe, other local music venues and selective dates around the country. Joe also heads the Jupiter Inlet Music Group and Village Idiot Music publishing in Nashville.
