Joe Barrs has always possessed a fervent passion for music and performing having attended two of Sydney’s most prestigious performing arts high schools.  Having a sweet melodic voice and a penchant for the guitar this was his focus until the age of 17.  This changed when he moved to England to live with his cousin for a period.  In a flat in South London Joe was first introduced to the art of turntablism.  Joe was instantly enamoured by the art and set out to cultivate his craft flipping records and blending beats daily until he perfected his skills.  As the art has changed and progressed over the many years since, Joe has been there every step of the way further developing his arsenal.   
It has been 13 years since Joe first hit the Technics turntables, a career that has seen him perform and gain residencies around the globe.  This wealth of experience performing at clubs, bars, pubs and private functions ensures that Joe is fluid in his ability to play all genres and please all crowds.  His versatility is evident in his having developed an innate skill to read the room and tailor his delivery accordingly.
Over the years Joe has maintained his love for musicianship in creating his own music.  He is a singer, rapper and producer who recently returned to his origins in cultivating his own work which has been well received on Triple J Unearthed.  With a laid back rap style, melodic voice and ability to inhabit a variety of genres he has been described as ‘Rufus meets Allday meets Tame Impala’.  This wide scope of comparison is again testament to his versatility and range in creating songs and sounds that cross genres and appeal to a diverse audience.
