Joe Firstman’s newest record has received great praise from notable music critics like Otis Casas and Tim Kloiber.

Even after getting the record deal Joe Firstman were not sure if they would make it in the end. The group plays plenty of arenas, but would rather perform in the smaller clubs in which they began. Joe Firstman talked to a music director from X103.5 and got their single on air. The girlfriend of a record executive heard the song and soon after Joe Firstman was signed. The group's members all had weird jobs while they waited to be noticed.
