The Mango Joe Trio plays a smooth and fun mixture of original music, along with a few popular favorites, drawing on influences from Mango Joe's 25 years of living abroad. His recordings with musicians from Mali, Mauritania, Senegal, Guinea, Cape Verde, Finland, Ukraine, Germany, China, Nepal, Venezuela, Puerto Rico, and Paraguay, present a style of music which speaks to the common experiences we all share.

Mango Joe's upcoming album Four Continents is a collection of 16 of his own recordings over 12 years from Mali, Mauritania, Finland, China, Nepal, and USA, plus four new originals.
