Joyous Wolf goes wild in Cape Coral – Music Madness Magazine

For the past few months Joyous Wolf has been going wild with Buckcherry on the first leg of the Warpaint Tour.

Normally we include the opening acts review with the headliner… Unless… The opening act blows us away, as Joyous Wolf did in this case.

One incredible fact about this band is that they have played major festivals before even having an EP out. Another is that Roadrunner Records signed them after only seeing one show! This ought to give you an indication as to just how good these guys are not only with their musical abilities but their stage presence as well.

After signing with Roadrunner Records on March of 2018 the band went on tour with Fozzy and played festivals such as Welcome To Rockville and Carolina Rebellion. We were also able to catch them at Ferg’s in St Petersburg with Buckcherry prior to their debut EP “Places in Time” was released. What a great night that was.

Joyous Wolf and Buckcherry landed at the Dixie Roadhouse in Cape Coral on the evening of Memorial Day for the second leg of the tour for what turned into one rockin’ night!! Thank you 93XFM and Rage More Events for putting this show together.

Led by singer Nick Reese, Joyous Wolf took to the stage and kicked off this incredible night. They gave the crowd everything they had and the crowd was into it. At one point during the show Nick jumped off the stage down into the crowd and gave them a close up view of his wild moves. He really knows how to work a crowd and get them pumped up.

Guitarist Blake Allard, damn this guy is good!! I almost believe Blake is from a different generation that what he actually is. His playing is absolutely fantastic and like Nick he knows how to play to the crowd. I was very fortunate with the lighting for Blake’s position on the stage. I was very happy with the pictures I was able to capture. Unfortunately we can only put up so many… lol

Greg Braccio does one hell of a job handling the low end on the bass!! My only problem is this guy makes me feel real short, seriously this guy is tall…lol he is a great bassist and really rounds out this group.

Drummer Robert Soda, this guy was a blast to photograph and he can rock the hell out of that kit.

With their mix off gritty rock and roll with a little bit of blues mixed in, Joyous Wolf has created one great sound and their live show makes them one you do not want to miss!!! Thank you guys for a great show!!

We’d also like to give a shout out to our brothers behind the scenes, Jet Live Events and Fat Chris Productions!! We are very lucky to have these two here in Southwest Florida!!
