Black Joe Lewis is the realest motherfucker there is. When Covid sidelined his touring this past year, he started laying concrete to help support his baby mama and his kid. That’s fuckin’ real. When Joe and his band, the Honeybears, popped onto the national stage over a decade ago, many critics embraced him but still, there were some that maintained that they hadn’t paid their dues. Joe’s still here. Still going. Still cashing checks and snapping necks. The dues of hard work; the delirious heights of the industry as well as the disappointments and low hanging fruit. Through this all, Joe’s only honed his mastery over gut bucket blues guitar and his true voice. It’s a vital and distinctly American voice that never anticipated the attention he wound up receiving, never went looking for it either. It just started happening. The garage, the blues, the propulsive and synergistic live performances that inhabit the spaces of James Brown, Lightnin’ Hopkins, and the MC5…those things happened naturally from the very beginning and could only be accurately communicated in the live experience, not a press release or a slick brand campaign. Sharon Jones, Charles Bradley, Cedric Burnside and Lightnin Malcolm, The Dirtbombs, Detroit Cobras, the Strange Boys; these are some of the artists that Black Joe Lewis and the Honeybears shared countless bills with; almost a roll call of the most influential soul and garage bands of the last twenty five years. Has the soul blues garage explosion from that era been commodified or worked into the overall template of pop rock? Sure. But the ground floor was a vital space for people that like guitars and grease and at this point Black Joe Lewis is one of the last standing that was there. Last of a dying breed. Or maybe a missing link. Does this make him a throwback? A throwback to a throwback? It’d be tempting and easy for Joe to go along with that but nah, we don’t think so. We know that Joe Lewis is genuinely doing his thing and that he’d do it regardless of what’s coming down the pipe. A stone cold original and a veteran at that. If you like whistling in your music and some floppy hat, quaky kneed dudes cloyingly singing at you, then you might not “get it” but whatever…there are enough intrepid, degenerate weirdos that do. Those are the folks Joe cares about. Not the glad handing set. Not the fair-weather friend set getting down with the flavor of the month. Like the title of his last album says, “the difference between me and you” is Joe defining for himself that there’s the belabored wannabes and then there’s dudes that actually “HAVE the blues”...whatever the hell THAT is! Joe’s concrete pouring boss is gonna miss him.

There's some kind of blues renaissance going on, it's a privilege to watch!
Dang his Squier Tele looks and sounds great, I’m a sucker for the P90 in the bridge. I like his picking style without a pick too, you don’t see that often with electric guitarists
Hell yeah, fruckin tight.
Love Black Joe Lewis! Stoked to see him here!
6 beers deep and this is hitting hard! 🔥
Just seen them for the 5th time and this is by far the best iteration of the band.
J'attends de le voir à Paris (Fr) mais la France est de moins en moins un pays pour le Rock ou le Blues
I’m feelin this
Just discovered these dudes on spotify listening to James Brown. I just gotta say Bitch, I love you
digging the tunes and the steely dan ball cap
Just saw them live in Tomball Texas! Best show
Just saw them tonight in Spartanburg, SC! Excellent show! They played at a cool BBQ joint that has a showroom for live music. I bought a t-shirt from Joe, shook his hand and thanked him for the great music.
I love this version of the band, and sound, the best. More raw and garage rock. Hope they stick like this.
great music
I miss the Saxophone guy! Bring him back!
That is tight there' coming to Madison soon
Black Joe Lewis is the shit. Come back to the West Coast
is that a new song coming out?
I guess so; never heard those songs before...
BITCH!!!! I love you💗
