Joe Topping http://www.joetopping.co.uk/ is a young British singer / songwriter.
He has just arrived home after completing a gruelling 11 week, 1,400 mile charity walk from North to South across America, guitar in hand - via the Cities of Music: Chicago, St. Louis, Nashville, Memphis and New Orleans - in aid of the musicians displaced by Hurricane Katrina http://www.joetopping.co.uk/nomrf1.htm.
He has returned to the U.K. with several new recordings and songs, undoubtedly musically as well as soulfully enriched by his efforts.
He has previously toured the U.K. and Europe as a sole artist, as a member of The John Wright Band and has also toured with Joe Wright.
Joe has recorded 2 albums: ‘Love, Loss & Alcohol’ and ‘Take Me Home’ and is currently working on his third album to be released mid-2007
