Few artists embody the heart of Sound Waves quite like Joel DaSilva. A guitarist, singer, and songwriter with deep Chicago blues roots and a global musical lens, Joel brings a sound that’s raw, soulful, and unmistakably real. His music blends blues, roots rock, garage soul, and Americana into something entirely his own— driven by instinct, history, and endless momentum.
At Sound Waves, Joel’s appearances have evolved into something special. Each return becomes an All-Star Blues Jam, curated by Joel and fueled by the best blues musicians in South Florida. Nothing was scripted. Songs stretched, musicians rotated, and the night unfolded as a true musical conversation—different every time, but always alive.
For this All-Star Blues Jam, Joel is joined by an exceptional lineup of musicians:
- John Grillo on drums,
- Robert Sherber on bass,
- Kevin Muncy on saxophone,
- Scott Rowell on keyboards, and
- Rockin’ Jake on harmonica and vocals.
Together, they bring depth, spontaneity, and a shared language rooted in blues tradition—ready to follow the music wherever it leads.

In 2016, just days after Prince’s passing, Joel took the stage and sang Purple Rain. As the song unfolded, the sky shifted to a soft lavender hue, and a light mist began to fall. Everyone went still. You may not see it on the video—but if you were there, you felt it.
In the years that followed, Joel returned with evolving All-Star Blues Jams - nights fueled by friendship, generosity, and deep musicianship. From Earth Day fundraisers to post-COVID reunions, each appearance carried the same thread: surprise, soul, and a shared understanding of why live music matters.
