Joe Scholes (D) 2. Freedom Sounds Festival - Gebäude 9, Köln - 03. Mai 2014 - Joe Scholes (D)
Back by popular demand, JOE SCHOLES will grace the acoustic stage of
Freedom Sounds festival again in 2014. He will play old favourites and
new songs. Even though he does not look his age, Joe aka Joachim
Uerschels has actually been around since the early days of the German
Ska scene.
Joe’s former band, THE BRACES, played the very first London
International Ska Festival as well as a turbulent UK tour supporting Bad
Manners in 1988. Two of their early favourites, “Julie Julie” and “The
Letter”, featured on the now sought-after compilation, “Skank – Licensed
to Ska”, which heralded the so-called Third Wave of Ska in 1988 and
featured some of the best new talents like The Toasters, The Busters or
The Loafers.
Later on, Joe also played with the band Alpha Boy School from Bochum and
in more recent years he also worked as a journalist, setting up his
online magazine REGGAE STEADY SKA, which has quickly become one of the
best and most-frequented sites for fans of Ska and Early Reggae
globally, and publishing THE SKA MUSIC YEARBOOK (to be released as an
e-book early next year).
Joe Scholes is currently working on his solo album and will introduce us
to his latest work. In addition he will also join old pals, THE NICKS,
for a short set of BRACES hits on the main stage.
