Joe Elliott

Biography

In his youth, Joe was caught by the music of the late 60s/early 70s ‘glam’ bands such as T.Rex, Mott The Hoople and (David Bowie’s) Ziggy Stardust. Joe’s dream to be a member of the imaginary band Deaf Leopard came true when he joined Atomic Mass, originally formed by Rick Savage and Pete Willis. Partly because of Joe’s dream, the band was renamed to Def Leppard.

Each month, listen to Elliott play “Deep Tracks” from his personal music collection on SiriusXM’s DeepTracks (Ch. 27) . Expect to hear songs from Joe’s vault and some of the stories behind them.
