Joe Wong News

Joe Wong shares a new track featuring Mary Timony and announces his upcoming album release. The album from the Los Angeles-based, Milwaukee-raised musician, film + television composer (Midnight Gospel, Russian Doll, Master of None) and podcaster (The Trap Set with Joe Wong) also features early singles “Into Nothing” and “Waiting.”

The maximalist balladeer returns with the album's second single, “Waiting,” performed by Wong and featuring guitars and backing vocals from co-producer Mary Timony (Ex Hex, Helium, Wild Flag). “Waiting” will also appear on the upcoming Netflix animated show, Carol and the End of the World

He also shares the album's lead single, “Into Nothing,” co-produced with guitarist Mary Timony (Helium, Wild Flag). “Into Nothing” features a multitude of textures, from the opening funky bass line into psychedelia-laced indie pop with a mid-song drum breakdown courtesy of Matt Cameron (Pearl Jam, Soundgarden), followed by a horn-infused release.

On 'Ding Ding Delicious’, Daly provides vocals and saxophone and is joined by multi-instrumentalist Cyrus Gharemani (Man Man) plus a fantastic cast of musicians including Mary Timony (Helium, Ex Hex), Nick Thornburn (Islands), Colleen Green, Devendra Banhart, Joe Wong (The Midnight Gospel), and his brothers Matt and Austin Daly.

Comedian Jon Daly (Kroll Show, Curb Your Enthusiasm) has announced his debut full-length album Ding Dong Delicious. Alongside the announcement, he premiered the music video for the Kraftwerk-esque lead single “Addicted to Computers”, featuring Martha Kelly and Fat Tony.

Composed by Joe Wong – who has worked on some of Netflix's biggest hits including Master Of None and the To All the Boys… franchise, and their critically lauded The Midnight Gospel -- the album consists of his dream-like original score with highlights from the breakout first season and the highly anticipated second season.

BMI introduced three new awards, including the BMI Streaming Documentary Award, BMI Film Festival Award and BMI Streaming Film Award, recognizing the importance of these mediums and the composers whose musical works have contributed to these categories.
