R&B fans were treated to a nostalgic showcase of smooth vocals and timeless hits as Joe took center stage for NPR’s Tiny Desk concert series in celebration of Black Music Month.

The veteran singer delivered a performance that highlighted the signature sound that made him one of R&B’s most recognizable voices. Backed by a live band, Joe revisited several fan favorites, including “Good Girls,” “Faded Pictures,” “More & More,” “The Love Scene,” “All the Things (Your Man Won’t Do),” and “I Wanna Know.”

The performance also featured a special family moment. Toward the end of the set, Joe’s daughter joined him on stage, adding backing vocals and helping close out the performance.
