- About me:
Joe started guitar at the age of 9 with lessons and the Mel Bay Method, but obviously many hours of practice and live performances with his band have resulted in Joe get a reputation for some mean six string guitar playing.
Joe has a broad based approach to his playing and this shows through in his playing, blending straight ahead rock with fusion and state art of the art licks.

Joe Gajan first picked up a guitar at the tender age of nine. He was gigging within two years and hasn’t looked back since. His rockabilly loving dad told a young Joe that he’d buy him a Les Paul if he stuck at the music for a year. More than three decades later, he’s truly earned that axe, having gigged and recorded all over his home state of Wisconsin and far beyond. His music is as much influenced by the great rockabilly and early soul records of his father as by the guitar heroes of later years. But you can still hear the influence of Hendrix, Page and Frank Marino in Joe’s music. Despite that, it is a unique sound that is very much his own
