In addition to these efforts, He also recently completed an album of solo material at Philville Records, accompanied by members of the Driftless Revelers, and is plotting a release in 2026. Thielen also enjoys writing and performing acoustic music on patios, porches, living rooms and dank basements. Joe’s original music is an odd combination of Woody Guthrie, The Kinks, The Grateful Dead, The Cure, Boston, and The Velvet Underground, with lyrics sprung from a mind that enjoys meandering through strange spaces. Many people have reported “having a nice time*” or “having fun*” when seeing Joe play music. You and your friends might have a nice time, too. *may not be direct quotes, viewer discretion advised
