Joe Jarvis is an award-winning Christian Artist from Metro Detroit. Despite his upbeat attitude and nickname, “Smiley”, he knows from personal experience that life isn’t always easy. Joe’s catchy melodies and powerful lyrics tell rich stories that encourage others, bring people together, and show the goodness of God.
Joe got his start after winning the Michigan State Fair Superstar Competition back in 2022. He has performed live on Fox 2 News Detroit, interviewed on WMUZ Detroit, New Release Today and multiple podcasts and other media outlets. At just 24 years old, Joe has opened for CCM artists such as Cochren and Co, Micah Tyler, Ryan Stevenson, Apollo LTD, We Are Messengers, Jordan St. Cyr, Tauren Wells, Sean Rodriguez, Colton Dixon, John Redding and Sanctus Real.
His original CCM music can be described as a blend of pop, country, rock and folk influences, all culminating in Joe’s debut album, “Love is a Verb” that released on July 6th, 2024.
In early 2024, Joe and his team launched the "Love N Laughs Tour," a collaborative ministry event with local Celebrate Recovery groups in tri-state area churches. Focused on pouring into local communities, providing hope and healing through Jesus for those navigating emotional and mental health issues. Love N Laughs has also partnered with other organizations such as Habitat for Humanity and Spero Pregnancy Center, raising money to support their ministries. The tour has garnered support and on-air promotion from Family Life Radio and Hope FM.
