JOE SLATTERY
Bass Guitar Vocals Songwriter
Joe brings the heavy bottom to the band. With perhaps the heaviest influences
of anyone in the group, citing such metal luminaries as Lynch Mob, Dokken, Van
Halen, Whitesnake, Blue Murder, and classic pioneers such as Led Zep, Deep
Purple, Joe was integral in making the Norway sound heavier. Joe will only play
his pre-CBS Fender Jazz bass, and vintage Ampeg SVT.
A journeyman club player, Joe has played with Ken Dubman(Prophet), Ray
Gillan(Badlands) and Ted Poley(Danger,Danger) among others, before joining
Norway.
Not content with just playing bass, Joe has matured into a fine
songwriter, co-writing three songs for the "Arrival" album, and two
songs for "Rising Up From The Ashes".
When Norway is on hiatus, Joe performs with Ted Poley.
