Artist Profile: Joe Hand

Many people in the Christian music industry know that JOE HAND is an accomplished singer, songwriter, performer and producer (especially regarding his work with the Catholic market-where he is best known for co-writing the theme song to EWTN's LIFE ON THE ROCK). But what you may not know… is that this is a man dedicated to his faith… and the journey he’s been on, while growing in his
personal relationship with God.

JOE HAND was introduced to music at the young age of 7. His passion for music led him to prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston. Regardless of his classical training, Joe eventually found himself touring with a rock band. Although he had many wonderful experiences with this venture he knew deep in his heart that he was being “called” to create music that would inspire others to seek the great love and mercy of Jesus.

JOE HAND has gone on to record multiple CD projects with significant sales success. In 2004, he released EVERYTHING AND NOTHING, his first solo project after a 5 year hiatus. His theme for this project was inspired by scripture, but also addresses issues that we are faced with in troubling times. At first glance, Joe seems cynical by what society thrusts upon us, but in deeper reflection you can see clearly that he is overwhelmed with the idea that his true calling is to serve the Lord by serving others.

JOE HAND recently recorded a new CD (2005) based on his yearlong study of the Psalms. This CD, appropriately titled, PSALMS, will be an eclectic mix of musical styles but the common thread will once again focus on scripture with each track labeled a specific Psalm which will (hopefully) encourage further reading of the Bible.

JOE HAND has performed at numerous concert events. Internationally he has appeared in Croatia, Canada, New Zealand and most recently, Australia. JOE HAND has shared the stage with many well known Catholic, Evangelical and Secular artists including John Michael Talbot, Ginny Owens, and Mason Proffit. Aside from writing and performing, JOE HAND is also a well known producer in the Nashville area.
