About Me

New York based guitarist Joe Nardulli's self-titled debut CD is sure to inspire and intrigue the progressive rock connoisseur. With tone and melodic sensibilities reminiscent of Steve Morse and Eric Johnson, the focus is on compositions that are tightly structured, eschewing the bombast and length that progressive rock is known for. Joe's smooth, thematic playing style blends perfectly with his soaring, uplifting melodies. Combined with odd and shifting time signatures, you have songs that always keep your interest and never sound monotonous. Joe spends most of his playing time writing songs instead of practicing the instrument. He explains, "The compositions dictate my playing style; it's working on songs and melodies that I really love to do and that, in turn, shapes my guitar playing and technique." Joe finally found the right people and put a band together in the summer of 2004. David Penna on drums, Jay Levine on bass and Eric Davis on keys have bought Joe's material to life and the band is looking forward to the compositional process as they gear up for a full band recording!
