ACOUSTIC ELECTRIC Guitar Pickin’
An Evening with Joe Eddie

Live at the Empire Arts Center – Friday, September 26

🎸 A One-Night-Only Experience

Join us for a one-night-only cultural event blending roots music, storytelling, and North Dakota soul. This intimate performance reimagines what a live show can be — not just songs on a stage, but an immersive evening where music, story, and place come alive together.

🎤 About Joe Eddie

Joe Eddie is a six-string slinger from the north plains Red River Valley, always busy writing, recording, and performing his melodic, guitar-laden, hand-crafted songs.

A true grassroots troubadour — a ramblin’, gamblin’ tumbleweed street flower — Joe has written over 500 songs and multiple books of poetry, while carrying a mental jukebox of more than 1,000 covers. From fingerpicking sing-alongs to soul-stirring ballads, from heartache blues to rock ‘n roll that shakes the rafters, Joe Eddie delivers on the promise of a story, one song at a time.

His music is raw and melodic, poetic yet playful — the kind of conversation he likes to have with anyone willing to listen.
