Joe started playing bass at the age of 12. Noting great bass players such as: Steve Harris, John Paul Jones, Geezer Butler, Flea, and Jaco Pastorius as influences. Giving his best always, Joe plays hard and aggressive and is at his best when performing live. Joe has also done session and fill-in work for local acts such as Witz End, Tina Bailey Band, Josiah, Michael Nitro Band, Phat Bastard and many more. Most memorable show: Opening for a sold out Night Ranger show 2 nights in a row. 18,000 people! Wow! Favorite Album: Sabbath/Zeppelin/Maiden all of them! Joe also uses Dean Edge Select basses and Ampeg amplification exclusively because only the best will do.
