This tune was recorded live at an Off the Grid food truck event in Millbrae in October. 

CelloJoe was experimenting with a new Boss DD-7 Digital Delay pedal. The result inspired a Vince Giraldi style song that feels like falling snowflakes perfect for the winter season.

Life Is What You Make It feat. Ra.be 333, Kat Factor, & Galactik Vibes

Recorded and produced by Eric DeArtanha at his studio in Santa Cruz, CA.
There was a haze of smoke in the air from a nearby forest fire and hence the name "Smokey."

Smokey

I played at a corporate holiday party and they asked me if I could do some covers of popular songs and requested this song. 
So I covered it in my own style with cello and beatboxing. 
What do you think? Please comment.

IMAGINE DRAGONS: BELIEVER (CelloJoe cello/beatbox cover)

I played at a corporate holiday party and they asked me if I could do some covers of popular songs and requested Ed Sheeran. I really liked the lyrics and especially the part about "everybody's talkin bout exponential growth and the stock market crashing and their portfolios"
So I did a version where I sang the vocals and I did a version with the cello playing the melody. I didn't like my vocals (I'm no Ed Sheeran) so I'm sharing the cello only version. 
What do you think? Please comment.

Ed Sheeran - What Do I Know (CelloJoe's cello cover)

This is a work in progress, but I just wanted to post something and share it!
Auralponic put the special sauce on this track.Cello Joe made a track entirely of sounds from the cello. 
All the percussion sounds are recordings of tapping, slapping or rubbing the cello. Huge thanks to Connor Irias / Auralponic for producing it and making it sound amazing.

Beauty Overwhelms Me

OK phew! 
I am back from a month and a half of traveling around and playing at festivals, visiting family, and playing a wedding. Wow that was a whirlwind. 
I'm off to play at Mammoth Super Duper Festival tomorrow right now, but I wanted to share this track with ya. 
This song was an improvisation played at sometime around 4 am (could have been 5:30 am...) on July 1 at the very end of Electric Forest Festival. I was playing in front of the Puma Yana Booth. Almost every night I headed to Main Street (the vendor row) at the end of the night (around 2 am) and jammed out until the sun came up. I found a couple different vendors that had speakers and asked them if I could play some live cello beatboxing through their speaker and they said yes. 
This was the very last song I played at Electric Forest. I had such a great time at this festival. I improvised this song. I hope you like it.

Get Life in Ya! Single

Get Life in Ya!

Get Life In Your Body

I improvised this song at Miriam and Casey's wedding at the foot of Mt. Hood in Hood River, OR in July 2019. 
I used a kalimba, a cello (borrowed from Skip von Kuske, thanks Skip!) my voice and an RC300 Loop pedal with a BOSS Reverb pedal and a BOSS Delay pedal.

Living The Good Life

I made this track as a demo for a potential wedding client and she liked it and booked me to play at her wedding! 

Do you have a wedding or event where you'd like this type of music? Let me know in the comments or message me.

Waltz ala Peter Gundry

I did a "Sound Portrait" for a fan in Australia named Zoe! She saw one of my emails saying I was offering this service and asked if I could write a song for her husband because his birthday was coming up. She send me a few paragraphs describing their journey together, how they met, their travels, having kids, life after kids, etc. I got it done in time and she loved it! 

She wrote: 
"Thank you so much Joey!!! Sam loved it. I got a bit teary listening as well. You nailed it with the lyrics and the music was gorgeous, went perfectly and it captured everything that I was imagining. Wow 
I was really surprised by how easy the process was. I just provided some relatively unorganised thoughts about what I wanted to express in the song and it was like you read my mind. It was a very special present."

The Ballad Of Zoe And Sam

A song I discovered on an old burned CD. I recorded this one with Merton Stokes aka Mertonious Phunk aka Midstreamz
Check out the cello solo at the end!

Everlastin' by Midstreamz aka Mertonious Phunk feat. Cello Joe

Back in April 2020 when the Covid pandemic was first hitting, I sent out an offer in my email newsletter to do commissions for people. Whatever you need a song about, I'll write and produce it. Birthdays, weddings, births, deaths, anniversaries, break ups, getting back together, leaving on a trip, returning home, a song about a pet, whatever you need, I got you. 

This track is a commission I did for Aishanie. She reached out to me and asked if I could write a song for her sister.
Her sister was getting married and leaving her family in Delhi to go live with her husbands family in Mumbai.

So this is the song that I wrote and she said I could share it with y’all! 

Enjoy. 

Let me know if you want a custom song. They’re more affordable than you may think!

Lyrics:VERSE 1 & 2 
A black and yellow Fiat taxi cruises through the streets of Delhi 
On a journey to the hospital to welcome a new life
A brother was the promise, but a sister was waiting in surprise
At four years old, Aishanie was let down
But soon enough she turned that frown upside down

As they grew, Vishwani and Aishanie did what sisters do
They laughed, they danced, they fought, they found romanced
They learned choreography in jazz ballet to the song Big Spender
Their teacher Nobu was so flamboyant–was he gay or a pretender?

CHORUS
Well Niku got his Vish, but know that you'll be missed
Vish was born second, but she's the number one sis
This song is wishing you all the best as you start a new chapter in your life
Leaving your folks, grandparents and a sis, you’ve jet off to Mumbai
Leaving your family in Delhi for a new one in Mumbai

Verse 3
Secret late night sessions under a blanket with American TV
Binge watching prison break and the OC
The sisters would stay up way too late studying for tests
Their dad would say, "Why don't you cheat so that you can get some rest?"

CHORUS
Well Niku got his Vish, but know that you'll be missed
Vish was born second, but she's the number one sis
This song is wishing you all the best as you start a new chapter in your life
Leaving your folks, grandparents and a sis, you’ve jet off to Mumbai
Leaving your family in Delhi for a new one in Mumbai

BRIDGE
They went to uni in London, but didn’t find no husbands
Aishanie moved to San Francisco; Vishwani came to visit
She discovered craft coffee and avocado toasts and said, “Back home we need this shit!”
So she opened up The Grammar Room 
And she also found her groom

CHORUS
Well Niku got his Vish, but know that you'll be missed
Vish was born second, but she's the number one sis
This song is wishing you all the best as you start a new chapter in your life
Leaving your folks, grandparents and a sis, you’ve jet off to Mumbai
Leaving your family in Delhi for a new one in Mumbai
