He ploughs the singer-songwriter furrow and when I last saw him in Belfast some 6 years ago he reminded me of Bruce Cockburn with a little Springsteen in the mix.

US influences came across strongly in the lyrics of songs such as Arizona Dreams, which drifted strongly into Springsteen territory.

Keen to try out new material 'on the road' before heading to the studio means Joseph treats the audience to several new songs, of which the rollicking 'Now is Not a Good Time for God' and certain-to-be-popular 'Still a Lot of Love' stand out.
