Joseph William Feliciano Smith is a Filipino singer-songwriter, drummer, and guitarist. More commonly known alternately as Joey Smith and Pepe Smith, he is an icon of original Filipino rock music or "Pinoy Rock".

 

When he was eight years old, his parents separated, and his mother died from hepatitis. Smith and his younger brother Raymond went to live with their grandmother. Smith continued to live with his grandmother on and off for the next 50 years, and she was affectionately known to the Pinoy Rock community as "Lola Smith" (Granny Smith).

 

Smith said he never had the opportunity to speak to his father again, although he briefly corresponded with an American half-sister from another family his father had started when he returned to the U.S.
