The Joe Bouchard Trio
10-11-2024
Joe Bouchard is a founding member of the iconic rock band, Blue Öyster Cult and a legendary recording artist in his own right. BÖC recorded classic albums for Columbia Records and toured the world earning him nine gold and two platinum awards. Joe was a driving force behind Blue Öyster Cult's iconic sound for 16 epic years. With 14 albums for Columbia Records, BÖC electrified audiences worldwide with their genre-defining rock anthems. Joe, as the band's dynamic bass player, also masterfully tackled piano, keyboards, and guitar, leaving his mark on countless tracks. He wrote timeless classics like "Astronomy" (which was later covered by Metallica) and the hit single "Hot Rails to Hell." But his ensemble skills truly shined with "Don't Fear the Reaper," a top 20 hit that has been featured in countless films and TV shows. The unstoppable BÖC followed that up with "Godzilla" and the forever-popular "Burnin' for You."
Today, Joe's entire catalog with Blue Öyster Cult continues to rock the world through reissues by Columbia/Sony.
Over the past two decades, Joe has collaborated with numerous artists in recording sessions, and he recently recorded guitar for an Alice Cooper cover of "I Love the Dead" for the Mick Jagger/Martin Scorsese produced HBO series "Vinyl." The session took place in the legendary Electric Lady Studios in NYC.
Besides touring with his long time group after BÖC, Blue Coupe, featuring his brother Albert Bouchard (a founding member of Blue Öyster Cult) and Dennis Dunaway (a founding member of the Alice Cooper Group and member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame), Joe also records and plays with The Joe Bouchard Trio, featuring Bobby MacDougall on bass and Joan Levy Hepburn on guitar & vocals.
Joe’s lates album, “American Rocker,” is a must-listen for all rock fans.
