Joe has had an amazing career, from Indigenous reggae rock group No Fixed Address in the 80s, through to the Black Arm Band in the 2000s, and periods of leading his own band before and since then. His father and mother were forcibly removed from Palm Island in 1957, before he was born, after a strike in which indigenous workers campaigned to be paid for their work. His take on indigenous matters is always worth hearing, as is his best known song Yil Lull, an Indigenous anthem, and recent songs just recorded for a new vinyl.
