About this user
Joey Canyon has been singing professionally since 1973, he first started to perform on stage at talent night at the Palomino club in North Hollywood, shortly thereafter he was asked to sing backup at a recording studio on an album that legendary Cliffie Stone was producing, he was hooked.
Joey has spent over 37 years in the entertainment industry as a singer/songwriter, recording artist, performer, and actor. His early performances with his band Both Barrels in the late 70's, as well as duets, and solo acts took him from Los Angeles to the entire Rocky Mountain region from 1973 to the mid 1990's. From 1993-1995, he was fortunate to be a featured solo artist on 3 NFL country music compilation videos that included George Strait, Lorrie Morgan, Travis Tritt, Reba MacIntire, Clint Black, and others. Governor Richard Lamm awarded Joey a Governors citation for writing the anti-pollution song "Save Our Colorado" in 1978. He has also performed the national anthem at Mile Stadium, and twice at Coors field for the Colorado Rockies in 1996 and 2000, and will again for the third time in 2008.
Joey also worked through the 80's and 90's for Sam Allen Productions where he did everything from assistant director, lighting, sound, assistant cameraman, production coordinator, and location coordinator. He then began his own production services company called Independent Production Services, servicing the film, television, and sports industry as Assistant Director, assistant Cameraman, lighting, sound (Nagra), and Production coordinator, and working for such popular television series as Father Dowling mysteries, Americas Most Wanted, 8 years with NFL films, national commercials, documentaries, PBS, among others. That experience positioned Joey to do this video where he executive produced, Co-produced, co-directed, scripted, storyboarded, edited, and starred in "Take My Money", shot with Arriflex 35mm cameras and an 18-man crew. Joey was grateful that Take My Money became the Most Added Country Music Video nationally from January to March in 1994. Joey plans on doing 2 new CD's in 2009 of more original Country songs and Contemporary Christian songs and maybe a new video.
