Earle R. Ely, conosciuto come Joe Ely (Amarillo, 9 febbraio 1947), è un cantautore statunitense di genere country rock. Dopo alcuni anni di gavetta, sia da solista che assieme a e Butch Hancock nei , ebbe un discreto successo nel biennio 1981-1982 all'epoca della pubblicazione del suo quarto album in studio . In questo periodo aprì concerti per Linda Ronstadt, Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers, e anche per the Rolling Stones. Il suo stile inizialmente legato alla tradizione country virò verso la metò degli anni ottanta verso un rock più mainstream sulla falsariga dei lavori di Tom Petty e Bruce Springsteen.
