Press-Ready Bio

(scroll to bottom for alternate bios of 100 and 60 words)

With his largely fan-funded sophomore LP, All in Good Time, Joe Iadanza has crafted an album of songs that speak for themselves with a rare eloquence. These 10 tracks, produced by Evan Brubaker (Edie Carey, Rachel Harrington, Jenee Halstead), and mastered by Grammy Award winner David Glasser, have been stripped to their very essence.

Featuring Julie Wolf on piano (Ani Difranco, Dar Williams, Bruce Cockburn), Carolin Pook on violin, Craig Akin (Barnaby Bright) on double bass, and Gathering Time on backing vocals, the unadorned production delivers a working-class austerity, revealing a gifted scene-painter and storyteller.

Recalling Stevens, Cohen, and Springsteen, Joe’s music is rooted in classic folk: honest and raw. On All In Good Time, the song is truly the thing. And with hard work, the dream becomes a reality – all in good time.

Born of Italian immigrants and union activists, this Long Island, NY native knows about the passionate struggle of the American dream. Joe Iadanza is a late bloomer whose songwriting did not become prolific until his early 30’s with the birth of his first child. “I wanted my daughter to grow up with a dad who followed his dreams.”

Joe Iadanza is currently on tour in the US and Europe.

“Take one part James Taylor, add some John Prine, throw in a dollop of Harry Chapin, and you have the voice of Joe Iadanza.

“Joe is more than just a man with a hat. He’s a talented songwriter with a unique vocal style and presentation. Yes, the Bruce Springsteen comparison is apparent. Like Bruce, he’s a master of the same kind of story-song.” – Kathy Sands-Boehmer – The Me & Thee Coffeehouse (Marblehead, MA)

“Iadanza is a wonderfully poignant storyteller…His singing has a warmth that reminds me af Harry Chapin” – Darius Rips – Oliver Di Place Music Blog
