Joe Grande

Joe Grande is no stranger to the entertainment industry. His road to the big screen started out in radio... The Bay Area is where Joe got his first radio gig, and has not looked back since then. There he was known as "Big Joe" on the wildy popular show, 'The Doghouse.' From there, he made his transition from the Northern California to Los Angeles and joined the number one morning show, 'Big Boy's Neighborhood' on Power 106. Joe moved on and switched stations, and joined Ryan Seacrest on KIIS FM's 'On Air with Ryan Seacrest.' In addition to that, AM 570 gave Joe his own show 'Joe Grande's Barbeque' which became an instant hit and propelled him to the top 5 radio personalities in 2007. All radio did was just prepare him for his next stop: Hollywood. In 2004 Joe guest starred on HBO's hit show 'Entourage' and had a supporting role in 'Party Animalz' that same year as well. In 2007, Joe took on a greater challenge, by playing a cold blooded killer in the movie 'Unwelcome Strangers.' 2008 was the year that Joe brought it all together. He joined forces with Noel G. once again in the feature film 'Food Stamps,' then in late 2008 executive produced and starred in the feature 'Blaxican Brothers' where he plays a PO Pug, a probation officer who is the incosummate professional and does things in which he deems right. That was Joe's first film he produced with his production company 7 Day Films which he is the President/Partner of. Joe is now gearing up to take on a more different role in 'Swackers,' which is set to shoot spring of 2009. 'Swackers' is already being talked about the film that will push him into a much bigger bracket, and leap him into stardom, with a cult/legend like following that 'Swackers' will attain... Growing up no one knew what route that kid from San Jose would go. But Joe's bubbly, and likeable personality is what drove him, along with the drive to succeed in the memory of his parents...
