Joel O'Keeffe (25 May 1985)
Member of: Airbourne (2003...)
Vocal Range: A2 - A5
{Synopsis}Unashamed and irreverently fun, Joel O'Keeffe along with Airbourne established himself from the get-go as a larger-than-life figure in rock 'n' roll. With his classic rock rasp taken straight from the likes of Angry Anderson, if you ever stop to think about Joel's voice through the wicked infectiousness of his energy, it becomes a question of how he does it and how long he'll be able to keep it up. However, fifteen years being under his belt already, Joel continues to be an absolute party vehicle and - however artistically bereft his songs may become - will assuredly entertain mindless fun around the world for years to come.

{Questionable Notes}E2 ("No Way but the Hard Way"[1a])
..................................................
[1] Questionable quality.
a. Breathy, unsupported growls.
Questionable notes are any notes with a questionable significance. In short, this spoiler acknowledges notes that I am aware exist, but do not want to contribute to the singer's range. These involve (but are not limited to) weak vocal fry, uncontrolled slides, very short notes, notes hit at an ambiguous pitch and notes where it is unclear who is singing.
