LIVE MUSIC

Joe Walmsley started out at age 13 in Liverpool, England, playing in various bands and performing many styles of music as well as writing his own material. He later performed all across Europe, The Canary Islands and New York City. Joe has also played theatres and has been a guest on numerous radio stations in the UK discussing as well as performing his own songs.

In 2001 he wanted a change from his hectic schedule and after attending some auditions, he accepted a position in the cruise line industry.  Joe worked on the high seas for 5 years as lead production vocalist, as well as having his own solo show, and eventually he became Cruise Director, where he managed the whole entertainment department onboard.

One of Joe’s many ports of call was Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, FL.  This is where he discovered a little Irish bar called Waxy O’Connor’s and it became his favorite spot when he had time off of the ship.  He became friends with the owners, and after experiencing his musical talent and charismatic personality, they offered him an in house entertainment position at their new pub on The San Antonio Riverwalk in Texas. 

Waxy O’Connor’s is where you can find Joe performing a broad range of music as well as traditional Irish tunes. He is well known for his acoustic guitar skills and will entertain you with his own original music as well as covering great classics from The Beatles to Oasis.

Joe plays 5 times a week, show times:

Sunday through Thursday 8.30pm to 12am

He also had a CD available at gigs consisting of 10 original songs of his own, recorded with a full band. Also check out Joe's websites:
