Joey Gilmore Band
![]() Born in nearby Ocala, Joey Gilmore established his niche in the blues world back in the sixties and has been a Florida favorite ever since. He has played with many of the great soul, blues and R&B stars that came our way, as well as leading his own successful bands. Joey is a true blues and R&B master who blends new styles into his music, performing original compositions mixed with traditional standards in a high-energy show. His tenor/baritone vocals are reminiscent of the blues legends from the 1940s and 50s. His influences are strong but his unique style is undeniable. Joey has shared the stage with greats like James Brown, Etta James, Bobby Blue Bland, Little Milton, Johnny Taylor and many others. In 2006 Joey went to Memphis to compete in The International Blues Challenge (IBC), outscoring the other bands while showcasing his amazing talents. Not surprisingly, he took First Place in the Band category. Artist Websites: joeygilmore.net myspace.com/joeygilmorebluesband |
