Joel Porter

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I was at the symphony with my mom, dad, and older sister... I was maybe three years old. It's a fuzzy memory... but I remember sitting in the balcony section and falling in love with the strings. My dad brought home my first violin shortly after. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Little Tooth” LT is about witnessing my partner age with a certain grace, and feeling left behind due to my resistance to the natural 'wither and bloom’ that comes with change... and realizing that what we try to hold onto might really be what we need to release What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Having my song, "Hymn", synced to the CW's "The100" (S7E4) and the outpouring of comments from people who watched. I was so glad to hear how well the song fit the scene and told the story of beloved characters. So honored to be a part of that world. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? There's plenty, but the most important is to dive deeper. I haven't scratched the surface yet, and I want to create music that connects and gives people a path to better understanding themselves. And I'd love to share my music in person again.
