Growing up as the youngest of 5 children Joe was surrounded by music, with two parents in the business - songwriter and TV personality Richard Stilgoe and opera-singing Annabel Hunt.A modern-day entertainer, known globally as a performer of wit, style and a level of musicianship which has seen Joe recognised as one of the best singer-pianists in the world. Always searching for a new way of bringing not only his own songs but those he loves from the past to a new audience, he is an enticing mix of his heroes Danny Kaye, Nat King Cole and Dudley Moore. He is known for writing songs that sound like theyve been around for years and for adapting classics and making them sound like theyve just been written. A hugely sought-after performer for society parties, corporate events and charity fundraisers, Joe was asked to perform for The Queen and Duke Of Edinburghs 70th wedding anniversary at Windsor, and has given private performances for Prince Charles at St James Palace, the Duke of Edinburgh at Windsor, the Duchess of Cornwall at The Ritz in London and Prince Edward at Frogmore House, among many others. He has recently begun an association with The Science Museum, where last year he was the first jazz musician to be invited to give a talk on the science of music with Dr Philip Ball as part of their LATES season. He is also an ambassador for The Old Vic, Children & The Arts, The Orpheus Centre and Chestnut Tree House. Joe works extensively on radio, having hosted and starred many times in BBC Radio 2s Friday Night is Music Night, while also being a regular presence on the station (Joe Stilgoe Christmas At The Movies, Jingle Bell Joe, One Night Stand at Ronnie Scotts), and being a regular guest and presenter on JazzFM, Radio 3 and 4. On stage: High Society at The Old Vic, Guys And Dolls at The Albert Hall, Olivier Awards at Royal Opera House. As composer and lyricist: The Jungle Book (UK tour), The Midnight Gang (Chichester Festival Theatre), ZOG (UK tour), ZOG & The Flying Doctors (Rose Theatre, UK tour), A Greener Garden (Chichester), The Baddies (Lyceum, Edinburgh, UK tour)
