Joe Chambers

Joe Chambers was inspired by his older brother George to play guitar and write songs. The brothers, Joe, George, Willie and Lester, formed The Chambers Brothers and began singing gospel music. They went on to perform in clubs, folk festivals and large concert venues after adding songs with rock, jazz and funk flavors. Joe and Willie wrote the groups biggest hit, “Time Has Come Today,” which has been featured on television programs and in several movies. Joe wrote several other songs, including “Call Me” and “Dinah” both of which were also recorded by the group in the 1960s.
