Bio-Joe Mullen:

Born in Cóbh, a small harbour town on the Great Island in Cork harbour in the south of Ireland.

When a young man he learned his trade as a woodworker in the localshipyards.

Moved to Belgium in the late eighties initially working on boats and eventually for the train builder Bombardier in Brugge.

Began singing for fun with friends and encouraged by public response decided to take it more seriously. Having grown up in a large family where music was much appreciated it was a natural step. The Irish language, though only learned in school as a child has always played an important roll.

Noticed by Mr. Serge Feys, musical director at the Grote Post Cultural Centre in Oostende and was invited to record a CD with him and a team of professional musicians.

'Newtown Road' is a mix of original songs, Irish traditionals and covers was launched in December 2016.

Because of sold out concerts and enthusiastic audiences the promise of a second CD titled 'The Bush Field' became a reality in December 2019.

Recently qualified as an instrument builder at the 

           'Centrum Voor Instrumentenbouw In Puurs.

Happy Memories...........
