Artist Biography
Available in:
Joe Public is a new jack swing group from Buffalo, New York. It consists of lead singer and bass guitarist Kevin Scott, keyboardist and guitarist Jake Carter, percussionist and drummer Dwight "Mr. Dew" Wyatt and lead guitarist Joe "J.R." Sayles. They are best known for their hit single "Live and Learn," which reached #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1992.
Joe Public evolved from the group Atension, signed to Island Records in 1989. The group is not to be confused with the music group Joe Public (same name and spelling), a 1970s recording artist, nor the group Joe Public, a present-day 5-piece band from England, nor to be confused with the band of the same name from Canada, a trio which has also released music on CD. They released their debut album Joe Public on Columbia Records, which contained their hit single "Live and Learn", which became their only top forty hit, peaking at #4 on the Billboard Hot 100. Their follow-up single, "I Miss You" reached #55 on the same chart. Joe Public was the first ever R&B group to perform on MTV's Unplugged series where they were also the back up band for Boyz II Men and Shanice. Joe Public was also the back up band for Kris Kross on The Arsenio Hall Show, which featured Jermaine Dupri's first national TV appearance.
They later released their second studio album Easy Come, Easy Go in 1994, also under Columbia Records.
