Great food and Toe Tappin' Music @ Bib's

Everyone who has been to Bib's on a Friday or Saturday night has enjoyed a great meal accompanied by the toe tappin' tunes played by Joe over in the corner. For almost two years now Bib's has enjoyed having it's favorite guitarist provide great music for the customers. His own renditions of songs such as "My Girl," "Lean on Me," Stand by Me," and of course "Tequila" have become familiar sounds of the weekend nightlife of Bib's Downtown. 

Joe says he began playing at Bib's in early 2009, shortly after it opened. He used to play at a local coffee shop in downtown, but when he saw the traffic coming through Bib's he knew he had to be a part of it. He has been playing guitar since he was 12 years old, about 40 years now. He started playing publicly in nightclubs when he was 17, where he also was known to sing along to his tunes.

In 1982, Joe spent the second half of his military tour in Germany playing with the "Gospel Travelers Military Quartet." Upon returning home, he put together his own band called the "Front Page Band" which played together for over 15 years.

Joe's favorites to play are pop tunes and sometimes jazz. He also plays for private events like birthday parties or weddings. He is at Bib's most Friday nights, lunch and dinner Saturday, and also for brunch at Hutch and Harris, in Winston on Sundays. Joe says he also enjoys coming to play at Bib's on holidays when they fall during the week. Be sure to catch Joe on St. Patrick's Day when he will be playing at Bib's Downtown!!
