Where can I see Joe perform?
"We ran a corporate event where we gathered industry leaders for ‘raw and unfiltered’ conversations on cross-sector collaboration. We wanted to give the event an ‘unplugged’ feel - so had invited Joe and his band to set the tone as people arrived. Joe also provided musical ‘stings’ in between our programme, theming the songs in line with key discussion topics, and as guests were walking to and from their breakout sessions.
With that Joe became a central part of our event concept and I couldn’t rate his performance higher. It wasn’t just the brilliant musical quality they brought, but also the sensitivity and flexibility they offered which made them such a delight to partner with!"

"We were absolutely thrilled to have Joe Gibson perform at our wedding in Italy. From the very first note, his music created the perfect atmosphere — heartfelt, soulful, and effortlessly stylish. Joe played throughout the day, from the ceremony to the drinks reception and into the evening, and each set was tailored beautifully to the moment.
What really stood out was Joe’s professionalism and calm presence. He arrived early, coordinated seamlessly with the venue and planner, and made sure everything ran smoothly without any need for prompting. His acoustic style suited the setting perfectly, and he was able to read the room with incredible sensitivity, adjusting the mood as the day unfolded.
As the evening began, Joe set the tone with a stunning solo set that transitioned beautifully into the night’s celebrations. So many of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed his performance, he brought a special kind of energy that felt both relaxed and uplifting. We couldn't have asked for a better musician to be part of such an important day."

"Joe Gibson has been a valued part of The Boatyard’s live music offering for over a decade, and we couldn’t speak more highly of his talent, professionalism, and consistency. His acoustic sets have become a firm favourite with our guests, bringing a warm and soulful atmosphere that perfectly complements our coastal setting.
Joe has an incredible ability to connect with a crowd, whether he’s performing laid-back tunes during a Sunday afternoon session or setting the tone for a lively evening event. His repertoire is both versatile and distinctive — blending blues, soul, and popular songs in a style that is unmistakably his own. He brings something truly special to every performance.
Beyond his musical talent, Joe is an absolute pleasure to work with.
Reliable, punctual, and always prepared, he’s become a trusted part of our team and someone we’re proud to have represent The Boatyard. We look forward to many more years of collaboration with Joe and can’t recommend him highly enough."
