Joe Flood is a musician and songwriter working in Connecticut and New York, although he started his career as a street musician in Europe.[1] A veteran of the '80s NYC roots rock scene, Allmusic has described im as "a true inheritor of the rich rock-blues-country-folk blend of The Band." The Band has also recorded some of his songs, as have Laura Cantrell, the Flying Neutrinos, and the Bottle Rockets. He's also done sessions work for various artists, including Mojo Nixon, Harry Chapin, Kelly Willis, Artie Traum, and Blues Traveler.[2] He's co-written with Jono Manson, Levon Helm, and Jim Weider, among others.[3]
