Blue Avenue featuring Mark Doyle & Joanna Nix

Blue Avenue features the masterful guitar work of CNY music legend Mark Doyle & the powerhouse vocals of Joanna Nix, a long time fixture of the CNY music scene. They’ve combined their talents with some of the best area musicians and are already one of the most talked about Blues/Rock bands in Central New York after their extraordinary NYS Blues Festival debut performance.

Guitarist Mark Doyle has been a part of some of the greatest area bands of the last 50 plus years including Jukin’ Bone, Backbone Slip, The Doyle-Whiting Band and currently fronts his Mark Doyle & The Maniacs band as well as being the guitarist and band leader for the National recording artist, Mary Fahl (The October Project). Mark is also a former member of many Nationally known bands including Meatloaf, The Peter Wolf Band (ex. J.Geils Band) and has recorded with Bryan Adams, Hall & Oates & many others during his 50 plus year music career.

While Oswego, NY native Joanna Nix has performed locally with a slew of CNY bands, she is new to the Blues/Rock scene and is currently being managed by Blue Wave Records president/founder Greg Spencer. Joanna, along with Blue Avenue, are currently in the process of preparing their Blue Wave Records debut album to be released in 2026 and will be performing in support of their Nationally distributed album (Select-O-Hits distribution in Memphis, TN).
