    Goode's Armadillo Palace is proud to welcome Joey Green Band.

    North Texas music vet Joey Green just released his album, Whatever Lady?!, an ambitious new project that showcases his music like never before. Leaving the full band at home, Joey once again hooks up with Fort Worth Sound Studio guru Bart Rose ( 2008's Vinyl Destination, Toadies, Green River Ordinance) and from the beginning they set out to make a record that would take Joey's songwriting to a new musical dimension.

    At first, what started as a heart-on-his sleeve solo-acoustic EP in the summer of 09', quickly turned into a “labor of love” full length album. Picking, producing and arranging the tracks alongside Bart (yes, Joey Green is also an accomplished local music producer), had Joey creating music on his own terms. After two full band records and nine years of touring, it was a much needed respite from the daily grind of the music business for this singer/songwriter deep in the heart of North Texas.

    What sets this new album apart from his others, besides the noticeable lack of telecast twang and happy go lucky rock n roll jams, is new material stripped down to its very basic musical core. The smart production and sharp mixes by producer Rose expose this 27 year olds unique vocal delivery, and the lyrics shine dramatically as a result. Joey's penchant for song selection and instrumental creativity help make this record a winner from the first hook. Cocky at times, of course. Full of Rock n Roll Swagger, you bet. Darkness and rage, why not. Joey lays it down thick and the music takes off on a path all its own.

    The album kicks off with the bluesy, backwoods stomp of “Natchitoches Blues”, a personal ode to his father's Cajun upbringing down in the swamps of Louisiana. With this song currently exploding on radio playlists in Fort Worth and Stephenville, one can only wonder how long it will be before radio finds out about this young, obscure, and highly talented artist. Current fan favorite Heavy, penned by his writing partner and fellow Fort Worth good ole boy rocker Ryan McBride, is a song that already has the critics and Fort Worth hipsters buzzing. One listen to the musical depth of this album will have you unable to classify his sound, a definite nod to his dynamic songwriting ability and his rascally-rocking voice, which grabs on and refuses to let go.

    This native of rural Joshua, Texas has silently logged over 250,000 miles criss-crossing Texas and Oklahoma, releasing his own brand of Red Dirt country rock that has him playing shows with some of Texas' newest crop of superstars. Many of whom, Casey Donahew, Kyle Bennett and Randy Rogers, come from the same Johnson County hotbed, a fertile breeding ground for Texas' newest batch of talent.

    Whatever Lady?! is the third album for Green, previously having released his full band debut, Outside the Circle in 2004 and his sophomore follow-up on Smith Records, 2008's pop rock infused, Vinyl Destination.

    Performing over 100 acoustic dates and over 100+ full band shows a year with his power-pop-meets-honky-tonk 4 piece band, Joey Green is quite possibly the best underground singer/songwriter in the state of Texas. With this new album it is only a matter of time before you will be singing the words to every song and if not... Joey simply has two words for you, "Whatever Lady?!"
