Q & A With Joe Fletcher

Last summer, I was hanging out at the Newport Folk Festival.  It was there that I was introduced to the stylings of Joe Fletcher & The Wrong Reasons.  And, I've gotta tell you, it was one heck of a set.

I’ve gotten to know Fletcher’s music and I’ve become a fan of his photography; his last road-trip made me feel like I was in the passenger seat.  I was curious about the artist and curiosity leads to questions.  So recently, I ‘e-questioned’ Fletcher and this is the result of that curiosity.  Check out our Q & A below.

Quirky NY Chick (QNYC): What non-musical person, place or thing has been the greatest influence on your music?

Joe Fletcher (JF): I would have to choose either Vladimir Nabokov or F. Scott Fitzgerald. Their subtle use of wit in their writing is something I've always strived for in my songs and, for that matter, my everyday life.
