Simon Joyner

Cited as an integral impact by Conor Oberst (of Bright Eye) and Beck, Omaha, Nebraska, indigenous and singer/songwriter Simon Joyner continues to be putting away delicate, close, mournful songs since 1993, once the 1 HOUR label released his Space Temperature Compact disc. The Cowardly Traveller Pays off His Toll, Heaven’s Gate, Tunes for the brand new 12 months, and Lousy Dance, the EP Christine, and many singles adopted through 1999. In 2001, together with his music group the Fallen Males, Joyner released To MINIMAL One, a tribute to ten vocalist/songwriters, including Paul Siebel, Anne Briggs, Kris Kristofferson, and Jerry Jeff Walker. The bleak but critically lauded Resort Lives showed up that same 12 months, accompanied by the similarly introspective Lost using the Lamps On in 2004. A compilation of singles and rarities, Gorgeous Losers, premiered in 2006, as was Skeleton Blues from Jagjaguwar. In 2008, Joyner released Cowardly Traveller Pays off His Toll on Group Like and Out In to the Snow adopted on a single label in ’09 2009. It wouldn’t become until 2012 that this normally prolific Joyner would launch another recording, but that year’s double-disc Spirits saw him supported by a complete music group. The next 12 months, New Secrets surfaced, the second cooperation between Joyner and Shrimper Information founder Dennis Callaci pursuing their 2004 EP Stranger Blues. Following a very long absence, Joyner came back using the contemplative, downbeat Lawn, Branch & Bone tissue in 2015.
