Long known to be a soloist capable of stunning physical power and broad emotional range, it was not until the
last decades that he emerged as the composer, bandleader and conceptualist that he is considered today. This
is in no small part due to his solo projects since the beginning of the 2000s.
This is in no small part due to his prolific solo projects, notably Four Walls of Freedom, a 6 movement suite
featuring the late tenor saxophonist Bob Berg; Live in Seattle (Origin) by The Joe Locke / Geoffrey Keezer
Group which won the 2006 EarShot award for Concert of the Year and his eloquent and vibrant quartet Force Of
Four (Origin).
In 2011 Joe joined the Motéma label for four intrinsically different albums bearing witness of his immense
stylistic versatility and ability to create artistic depth in a variety of contexts:
After Signing, the long-awaited follow-up studio album of Live In Seattle, 2012 also saw the release of Joe
Locke’s first ever symphonic project, Wish Upon A Star, featuring Locke‘s Quartet with the Lincoln Symphony
Orchestra (NE), and the Jazz radio charts #1 Blues & Ballads album Lay Down My Heart in 2013. In 2015 Locke
released Love Is A Pendulum - a suite based on a poem by Barbara Sfraga - is already being hailed the most
important work of his career.
Locke’s latest album, Subtle Disguise (2018) is being celebrated “a crowning achievement from a certified
vibraphone master” by Jazziz Magazine and means very much a happy continuation of his search to unite his
love of composition with the connective qualities of melody and groove.
Locke is a six-time recipient of the Jazz Journalists Association’s “Mallet Instrumentalist of the Year” Award and
has won numerous further awards and polls. In 2016 he was honoured with the induction into the Music Hall of
Fame of his hometown Rochester, NY. He is an active clinician and educator in the United States and in Europe
and is holding the title of Honorary Associate of London’s Royal Academy Of Music (Hon ARAM) since 2013.
