Joey Stuckey's Alive Day 2024: Music & Community - Part 2
•
Welcome to Joey Stuckey's Alive Day 2024 that Celebrates Life Through the Power of Music & Community!
Joey Stuckey is an award-winning blind guitarist, songwriter, singer, composer, producer, radio and television personality, music columnist, educator, and sound engineer. He cohosts our Big Daily Blend podcast every 4th Sunday. Joey has released several albums and is the owner and sound engineer of a recording facility, Shadow Sound Studio in Macon, Georgia. He is currently involved with students, instructing them on guitar, voice, music theory, and sound engineering. Joey and his band perform nationally. He also happens to be the official music ambassador for Macon, Georgia, the “Southern Rock Capital of the World.”
As an infant, Joey lost his sight and sense of smell as the result of a brain tumor. Sept. 29, ALIVE DAY, celebrates the day the brain tumor that he wasn't supposed to survive was successfully removed. It was thought that he wouldn't make it, or if he did, he would never walk or talk. Though the tumor left him blind and with a host of other health challenges, his is most gloriously alive and so grateful for the life he does have and for his friends, family and for the gift of music!

Alive Day has typically been a live concert in Macon, but this year we are celebrating by bringing musicians together with two Big Blend Radio podcast panel discussions, a music playlist of 290 inspiring and motivating songs, plus a musical online jigsaw puzzle.
