Joey Balin
With over sixty major label productions under his belt Joseph most certainly is a music industry veteran. Having worked with all four multi national labels worldwide many times over his expertise and achievements both here and abroad are unparalleled (resulting in gold, platinum or multi platinum awards in most European territories). His song writing talents appear on everything from teen boy band sensations like Boyzone (UK double platinum) to the eclectic Buddha Bar series (Paris). Joseph’s Living Theater series released on his custom label Kunduru Music (established in 2000), further helped establish and explore the contemporary world music market and to date has sold well over 150,000 units worldwide while the songs of Living Theater have been featured on over 2,000,000 compilation units. In addition, the songs of Living Theater have found their way onto Independent film releases (Lou Ye’s- A Summer Place/China), hit TV programs (CSI Miami/USA) and TV networks such as BBC, ESPN, TNT & PBS. His work in the children’s music market (Hampton and the Hampsters/Kunduru-Sony Wonder) resulted in Sony Wonder’s first and only Radio Disney top ten hit. Artistically, Joseph continues to create in a diverse and otherworldly manner while commercially reinventing his position by entering into several deals with luxury retailers (Bergdorf Goodman, Louis Boston etc.) to further his brand.
