BIO

BRIEF
Joel Sires is a proficient songwriter, guitarist, producer, and performer. Born, raised and living in Iowa, Joel has become a well-known figure in music scenes throughout the Midwest since hitting the scene in 2004. 

From the very start of his musical journey Joel Sires has been a song chaser. Sires’ work has run the gamut from psych pop to glam rock, and power pop to singer songwriter folk. His latest work features hushed tones and acoustic guitars, breaking new ground by bringing the volume down and pushing the song and lyrics to the forefront.

FULL
Music has held great importance to Joel Sires his entire life. His exposure to playing music began early. Guitar circles and singalongs were not uncommon at family gatherings.

He has distinct memories of the soundtrack he curated for some of life's most defining moments - like a first crush. With a Walkman in hand, he reserved a certain song for a special girl, waiting to press play until she walked through the classroom door. DJing school dances was something he became skilled at quickly because he recognized at a young age the connection music had to creating a mood and defining experiences for people.

Joel has found a lot of fulfillment through music over the years and loves songs so much that finding the drive to make music rarely waivers. To put it simply - he adores words and has always tried to find a way to share them with others.

IN THE NEWS

News & Media coverage

Little Village
Dog Years 

"The step-up-to-the-mic, live-take approach of the songs on Dog Years gives them a serenity and open space that allows the songs to breathe. Sires sounds relaxed, letting the songs unfold naturally. The results are the best vocals I’ve heard from him."

​We Got Corn Midwest of Everything  
Dog Years

"It can’t be the easiest thing in the world to write, record and release an album right now… with the Pandemic and all. But, Joel Sires of TWINS accomplished just that. His new solo venture Dog Years will be officially released on April 1st of this year (2021) and while only 4 songs deep, it is a full 7-course meal of songwriting delicacy."

Pretty Fort Weekly
Dog Years

"This EP is the first solo release and follow-up to "Dream On" from the Twins frontman, who continues to sharpen his mellow, creaky, country rock skills."
