JOEY CAPE - THE RAMONES ARE DEAD

PRESENTED BY PAULINE FREEMAN

Long-time singer-songwriter Joey Cape has drawn inspiration from the candle lit emotion of Kill Rock Stars era Elliott Smith and an upbringing steeped in acoustic acts such as Simon & Garfunkel and Cat Stevens; Capes acoustic efforts stand up on their own and finally introduce him as a promising addition to the pantheon of great American singer-songwriters.

Cape says, Both (punk and acoustic music) share certain intensity and integrity. Dynamically, they are very differentbut they are similar in that they are both very honest approaches.

After 20 years of fronting Punk Rock band Lagwagon, Joey Cape is drawn to diversity. His compulsion to try new things is evident in the side-projects hes done along the way: the experimental indie-rock of Bad Astronaut, all-star party/cover band Me First & the Gimme Gimmes, power-pop combo The Playing Favorites and his work as a producer for bands such as The Ataris and Nerf Herder.

I am a musician, I dont have that gang-mentality. I make music and life is short. I want to create as much as possible before I lose my muse, says Cape.
