Joe Iconis
Artist Description
Newly Blacklisted writer Joe Iconis returns to the Joe's Pub bringing with him his merry band of musical theater punks. THE JOE ICONIS ROCK AND ROLL JAMBOREE is a laid-back evening of Iconis tunes, featuring cuts from Joe's recently-orphaned musical "The Black Suits," and a bunch of new songs. Songs of hate and hope, suburbia and pornography, cougars and jailbait, dead people and livin' things and more sing-alongs than you can shake a glass of whiskey at. Some special guests will join Joe for this, the second leg of his legendary "Mule Revolution " Tour 2008. So come on down to the Jamboree- it's loud, soft, sweet, nasty, and, above all else, bloody as hell.
Iconis is the recipient of a 2007 Ed Kleban Award, a 2006 Jonathan Larson Award, and is the Composer-In-Residence at Ars Nova. Joe is the author of the garage-band rock musical, "The Black Suits" (book co-written with Robert Maddock), "The Plant That Ate Dirty Socks" (for TheatreWorksUSA, directed by John Simpkins), and "THINGS TO RUIN: The Songs of Joe Iconis" (Joe's Pub, Ars Nova, directed by John Simpkins.) Joe's talents were also recently featured in the 24 Hour Musicals at Joe's Pub in January.
