Joe Connelly, Dean of the 2010 Festival [Greater Cincinnati Harmony Festival]

"Awesome" Joe Connelly is a proud member and musical director for the Southern Gateway Chorus and a proud member of The Chorus of the Chesapeake and the Easton Chapter, and surely of many others we don’t know about yet. Joe is also a “barbershop brat” and one of his endeavors is still happily singing with his dad in “Way Back When” from the Dixie District. After cutting his teeth while listening to his dad sing baritone in the multi-time medalist quartet the “Roaring 20’s”, little Joe Joe soon began his now famous career. By the way, Joe did make it to his senior prom and has the pictures to prove it.

Joe coaches quartets and choruses all over the globe, trying to hone his skills. Who said it can’t be done? Joe has sung in many quartets, most notably the Interstate Rivals - 1987 International Champions, Keepsake - International Champs in 1992, and Platinum - International Champs in 2000. That’s right: a three-time quartet International gold medalist.

Joe lives with his wife Gayle in Virginia. He's currently the "Awesome" Lead of Old School, 2009 Mid-Atlantic District Champions and 2009 2nd Place International Medalists. Can you say "four"? Sure you can!
