BIOGRAPHY

Joseph LeMay hails from the Missippi River bottoms of Dyer County in West Tennessee, but has recently started spending more of his nights and days in Nashville. A songwriter above all else(musically speaking at least), Joseph's tunes ring loudly without bells and whistles. "The way I see it, it's not my job to trick you into thinking I'm better than I am. Just to pass on the information I've been given in the form of melodies and fingers on strings."

It’s beer o’clock on both ends of the phone, the last interview in a long week of talking to complete strangers for the two of us.
