Background notes

Archive material and source history

Meet Joe Black came to attention in the early 2000s with their version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." The song had a haunting quality that stuck with people, and it became their calling card.

Their debut album, also called "Somewhere Over the Rainbow," came out in 2003. They put out two more records after that: "Black Box" in 2005 and "The Sword and the Shield" in 2007. The band was led by singer-songwriter Joe Black, who had been a street performer before forming the group.

There were rumors of internal trouble and a brief break in 2006, but they kept making music afterward. Their later work didn't reach the same commercial height as that first single, but they kept playing and recording.
