Joe is a force of nature on stage. Pure magic. 
From touring with Gordon Lightfoot, headlining major US festivals, receiving Folk Alliance International “Album of the Year,” releasing NINE BECOMES ONE (2023-2025) to being named Folk Alliance International Artist-in-Resident, Joe is on fire. He’s played with Suzanne Vega, Dar Williams, David Francey, John McCutcheon, John Gorka, Judy Collins and hundreds more. 
Whether he’s weaving through lap slide songs or fiddling an American Southern tune, he’ll draw you in. It happens every time… you gotta come to a show! With unwavering courage to be himself, he is literate, poignant, surprising, and funny as hell... Brooklyn in July, Oklahoma towns, rattlesnake tails, turbary thieves, meter maids and drunk roosters! He explores “The Long Note,” a phrase in Irish culture… that place of resonance and transcendence where the music, the voices, the instruments, and the community ALL come together and unite. You’ll leave inspired.
“I hate folk music, but I absolutely LOVE Joe Crookston’s music!”  - Unknown
