Joseph has been featured on NBC’s The Ellen DeGeneres Show and has performed at well-known Los Angeles venues, such as The House of Blues, The Knitting Factory, Roxy Theatre, El Rey Theatre, The Troubadour, among international venues in Australia, Singapore, and Canada.

Joseph Vincent was born on August 15, 1989 in Los Angeles, California. He is of Filipino descent. Joseph picked up his first guitar when he was 15 and started by playing song covers of some of his main musical influences, such as Jack Johnson and Jason Mraz. Joseph began writing and composing his own original songs at the age of 16. Joseph graduated from the University of California-Irvine in 2011.

In June 2008, Joseph entered the music scene by uploading song covers on YouTube, where he became widely recognized. He now (as of January 30th, 2015) has over 470,000 subscribers and over 68 million views. Joseph has often collaborated with other well-known Youtube artists, such as Jason Chen and Clara C. Although he is best known in the United States, Joseph has become internationally popular, having performed sold out shows in Singapore, Canada, and Australia, and being voted Australia’s "Youtube Artist of the Year" by Star Central magazine.

Outside of his YouTube success, Joseph was the winner of Kababayan LA’s first "Kababayan Superstar" contest in 2009, and has been featured twice on NBC’s The Ellen DeGeneres Show; he was featured first for their "Wonderful Web of Wonderment," and later as a performer, on April 29 and May 27, 2010.
