Album Notes

A modest fellow who has enough self-effacing humor to have named one of his bands Hanna & the Barbarians, he won't think to mention that he's a classically trained singer, or that he majored in voice at Bellarmine University. He might remember to tell you that he moved to Louisville, Kentucky from Charleston, West Virginia and that he is a New Jersey native. He might mention a folk trio he sporadically maintains with his sisters Nancy and Jean Marie, or the list of successful Louisville musicians and bands he has performed with.
One thing the usually unassuming Hanna won't forget to mention is his latest recording, Machine. Machine is a 12-song set of accessible, folk-pop music originals designed to introduce you to the world of Joe Hanna.
