Joe Stanton & the Precious Littles
Veteran songwriter Joe Stanton has been making music across Canada, Europe and the Southern States for the last 30 years. Inspired by folk, country, rock, blues, bluegrass and classical artists, Joe says he’s listened to “pretty well anyone who’s ever picked up a guitar”. A fingerstyle acoustic virtuoso, he has won accolades and placed in U.S. National guitar and song writing competitions.
This time around, Joe developed the songs with the band, as opposed to working with session players. The Precious Littles are:
- Joe Stanton on vocals and acoustic,
- Simon Paradis on electric and slide guitar, dobro and vocals,
- Jay Johnson on drums,
- Gerry Millar on electric and acoustic bass and
- Tom Neville on violin, mandolin and vocals.
“Joe Stanton’s grass-roots music gently grabs you and takes you on a timeless journey of people and places. His lyrics are rich with imagery and emotion. His voice resonates with an intimate style that warmly invites you into his reflective world.” Sunstream
The Precious Littles are appearing at the Main, Sept. 11 during Country Music Week – 4210 Main St., Vancouver, B.C. Â show time 10 pm AND opening with Slim Milkie for Run GMC at the Shark Club, Sept. 12
