Joe Leone has created his own unique style of rhythmic-acoustic sounds that are based around a fresh musical vision. His music draws upon many genres from traditional Indian Ragas and Middle Eastern scales to hints of Latin, Celtic, European Classical, Jazz, and American Folk. Original compositions take audiences on a musical journey; blending improvisations that are spatial, and beautiful; flowing into movements that are breathtaking in intricacy and speed. Joe's various combos of musicians have been mesmerizing their audiences with unique soundscapes, arrangements and captivating melodies... Consistently praised by audiences as one of the "Must See Live Acts!"

Leone's shows vary from intimate duo performances, to a power trio, to a full group experience with oud, tablas, cello, and an array of hand percussion instruments.

His performances have been at live club venues, festivals, colleges and universities, churches, spiritual centers, and private special events.

Me and my music:

Playing my guitar and composing music has always been my heart and soul. Songwriting for me comes mostly from playing a lot and experimenting with different ways to play similar arpeggios with different finger pickings, tunings, and time signatures. Often, a song begins to emerge from hearing a melody in my head. With lyrical pieces, I take great pains to write thought-provoking poetry. Some songs flow easily, while others take years of returning to a piece to complete. All in all, I have always tried to be unique in my writing and throw in something unexpected.

Originally from Long Island, NY, I studied Latin Classical guitar as a child, and have since developed my unique blend of musical genres: World, Classical, Middle Eastern, Nu-Jazz, Folk, Celtic, etc. In the 90’s playing electric guitar with my alternative rock group, Trinket, Michael Stipe of REM produced our CD. I have performed my original music extensively with various groups over the years, and have also written, produced, and performed in numerous original Choreodramas with dancers. And too, I have produced multi-media stage productions with world musicians and my video art projections, as stage sets.
