BIOGRAPHY
Since the release of his Human LP, Folk-Pop artist Joseph Eid has been garnering considerable buzz. He has been featured in American Songwriter Magazine's “Best New Music” column and was recently named as one of the 100 Hottest Live Unsigned Artists by Music Connection Magazine. His song “It's Only Love” will be in a new Independent film starring Sharon Stone called “A Little Something For Your Birthday.” His latest EP, Watch It Fall, was released in Spring 2017.
Joseph has been writing poetry and dreaming of a career in the arts as long as he can remember. He grew up in the suburbs of New York. Raised in a strict and traditional home, the arts were only supported as a hobby and never as a career. During his college years, Eid studied psychology and pre-med. After his first semester at med school, his dream got too big to hold and Eid made the bold choice of dropping out to move to New York City to pursue music.
While in New York, Joseph Eid picked up a guitar, joined a band, and the songs poured out of him like rain. His journey then led to Los Angeles where he started playing regularly at open mic nights and showcases. Shortly after, he began working with world-renowned guitarist/songwriter, David Lamar, honing his songwriting at weekly showcases at the Stone Bar. This lead him to write over 30 new songs as well as record a debut EP, Cardiac Output, followed by a full-length LP, Human.
Known as a dynamic solo performer, Joseph Eid has brought his one-man live show to many of Los Angeles' premiere music venues, including stints at Room 5 and El Cid and residencies at The Stone Bar, Crane's Hollywood Tavern, Bar Lubitsch. You can catch him weekly at his own music night now in Downtown Los Angeles at Bar Mattachine. He has also toured the Regionally as well as Nationally and has also enjoyed doing house concerts and corporate events.
