He works morning, noon and night to create this unique instrument... that will hopefully lead Joe to his new gig as a small-town musician with big dreams!

Sometimes, our talents & dreams lead us to the community we have always waited for. The Story of a Pig Named Joe and His Quest to Be Fancy is an homage to all varieties of music enthusiasts, from groupies to musicians.
