Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz Interview Series featuring British jazz guitarist Joe Steels. We dive into his 2026 CD A Blue Patch and his evolving career in music. Rooted in the northern landscapes of Cumbria and Northumberland, this project draws deep inspiration from countryside heritage, tradition, and a strong sense of place.
Joe continues to establish himself as one of the most exciting voices in British jazz guitar, blending a deep love of jazz tradition with elements of folk, rock, and contemporary music. His sound is driven by strong melody, innovation, joy, and optimism — qualities that shine throughout A Blue Patch.
In this conversation, we explore the making of the album, the influence of northern England, the state of British jazz, touring, collaboration, and the path forward.
