Joel Havea, a man of many talents, songwriter, singer, guitarist and an overall engaging performer whose eclectic style reflects his roots as true world citizen. Tongan born, Melbourne raised and European-based musician has played over 700 concerts in over 20 countries on 4 continents and has established himself as a fixture on the Australian and European club and festival circuit.
Since 2015, Joel has been playing with his Hamburg based trio, Leo Lazar (Drums) and Arnd Geise (Bass). Both of which are highly sought after session musicians whose varied influences of rock, jazz and fusion, add another dimension to Joel’s soulful blues and roots songwriting. Having honed their live show over countless European tours, the band is a dynamic force whenever they take the stage. He has released 3 albums and 2 EPs since 2012, all of which were self-made / financed productions released on his own label ‘Tastic Records’. His songs have racked up generous radio plays in Europe including NDR Hamburg, BB2, FM4, FluxFM Berlin and Deutschlandradiokultur.
His latest record ‘Ki ‘a Lavaka’ was released in April 2020, which for the first time contains musical influences from Joel’s Tongan roots, adding another element to his already unique style. His colourful and diverse background made him an ideal candidate for the Outlaw Ocean Music Project. The resulting songs on ‘The Outlaw Ocean EP’ are a reflection of the books many disparate themes and Joel's varied and eclectic musical influences.
