Tonight we chatted to local singer Joe Beer AKA Joe The Strummer. A regular on the Essex gig scene, Joe plays a variety of originals and unexpected covers, as we got a sample of tonight. He can next be seen live at the RNA Club’s Preview night on Friday July 26th, followed by a set at the Crooked Billet’s Billet Aid charity event on the 27th and Witham’s The Green Man on August 10th. Stay tuned for more upcoming gigs on his Facebook page!
