Biography
Often compared to Will Oldham, Joyner traffics in a similar true-to-his-roots type of retro/alternative, indie-going-major-label Country-Folk; but whereas Oldham sounds like the deconstructionist son of Townes Van Zandt, Joyner's roots lie in the radio-friendly sentimentality of Jackson Browne. This is coffeehouse folk music for people too sharp for Tracy Chapman, but not quite ready for anything recorded on a 4-track.
