Joe Kirby's journey into composition took root during his studies in Brighton, England, where he honed his skills before venturing into the expanse of Australia, immersing himself in the outback, absorbing new textures and atmospheres that would later find a home in his music. These experiences coalesced into the acclaimed album "The Great Ocean Road," earning accolades from both the production and pianist communities.

Joe then delved into the realms of television and film composition, making his mark on BBC 1, ITV 1, and BBC Sounds mixes. His musical prowess caught the attention of Universal Music Group's "Abbey Road Masters," leading him to compose and perform an album at the iconic Abbey Road Studios in London, collaborating with the London Contemporary Orchestra for the strings section.

Continuing his musical journey, Joe joined the ranks of "Platoon," an Apple-owned label, finding a creative haven in their North London studios. Joe's albums are reflective of specific moments and places in his life. Frequently, he crafts his music while residing in foreign countries, drawing inspiration from the unique experiences abroad to put into his music. He enjoys capturing field recordings during his travels and integrating these sounds into his music. This allows him to infuse his songs with the unique atmosphere of specific places and times, turning them into musical memories.

In addition to his musical skills, Joe has a thoughtful approach to the visual dimension of his art. He pairs each release with a carefully filmed and creatively designed video, demonstrating the harmonious integration of Joe's musical and visual capabilities, highlighting his distinctive and versatile approach as a composer.
