Nobody owns Joey Only. He plays by his own rules and works for everything he has. At just 30 years old he's traveled Canada relentlessly as a musician since 1996, playing 500 shows of his own songs since 2001. Prolific as both a songwriter and musical and social activist, Joey Only's biography reads like a list of immeasurable feats. This year he has just concluded recording his next album "Transgression Trail" with producer Corwin Fox and the rest of the Outlaws, set for release in early 2010. 2009 has also seen Joey tour with and open for Australia's alt-country band The Re-Mains all over BC and Alberta, and through July Joey also played bass for Arizona's amazing world music band Traveler when they came to Canada, in addition to his own shows and recording his next smack-in-the-face album.

Joey plays a mean solo show but obviously, has a band called Joey Only Outlaw Band, consisting of Leah Martin, (vox), Mike Zinger (slide/banjo/guitar), Jeff Andrew (Fiddle), Justine Fischer (bass), Kenan Sungur (drums) and Rowan Lipkovits (squeezebox). He's a regular contributor to BC Musician Magazine and has hosted Sound Resistance on Vancouver's Co-op Radio Station CFRO 102.7FM since 2003. Best known as a songwriter and guitarist Joey also moonlights as a studio musician capable of playing pedal steel guitar, percussion, upright or electric bass, harmonica and all manner of vocal arrangements. He's played with or been billed alongside such greats as Geoff Berner, Washboard Hank, Lance Loree, Po'Girl, Leslie Alexander, Kinnie Starr, and CR Avery.

Joey Only has climbed over 70 mountains, is an experienced wilderness guide, has chased tornadoes, been struck by lightning, nearly died of TB, had vocal surgery, smashed his face, been lost in the barrens, and incarcerated. He was publicly deemed a terrorist by the Victoria BC police, has been an activist for over 10 years, hitchhiked 30,000km, released four albums, failed out of University, and fought a mother bear. Joey is pro-cannabis advocate, a downtown eastside Vancouver healthcare worker, and still thinks the Leafs will win the Cup any day now.
