Joe Caballero is a U.S. Marine veteran, lifelong storyteller, and Chicago-based actor whose creative evolution has led him into a powerful new chapter: crafting music built for the screen. A proud Marine who graduated top of his class from The School of Infantry, Joe served as a Presidential Honor Guard at Marine Barracks Washington D.C. - taking part in ceremonies at the White House, the Pentagon, and the Iwo Jima Memorial. After his honorable discharge, he returned home to Chicago and briefly pursued federal law enforcement before discovering acting under the guidance of his first coach, Kurt Naebig. Since then, Joe has built an impressive SAG career spanning three decades. He has appeared in television series such as The Untouchables, America’s Most Wanted, and Just Shoot Me, and earned his breakout moment when director Gregory Hoblit elevated him to a principal role in the feature film Primal Fear, starring alongside Richard Gere and Steven Bauer. His film credits include Home Alone 3, Hoodlums, Original Gangstas, Witless Protection, The Dark Knight, and leading roles in independent features such as Drifted, For Hannah, Never Stop Talking, and The Dream Ledger. Today, Joe channels the weight of his experiences - the discipline of the Marine Corps, the emotional depth of his acting career, and the grit of real life - into a signature musical style that blends outlaw blues, Americana soul, and cinematic storytelling. His songs are raw, atmospheric, and emotionally charged, making them natural fits for film, television, and visual media. Through his production company, Jungle Boot Pictures LLC, Joe continues to create stories on screen while crafting music intentionally designed to elevate stories on film. His work explores trauma, redemption, brotherhood, and the human spirit - themes that resonate deeply in modern cinema. Joe’s emerging catalog reflects a lifetime of service, artistry, and resilience. Whether he’s behind the camera, in front of it, or behind a microphone, his mission remains the same: tell the truth, honor the journey, and create art that moves people.
