About Me

Joe Kleon/G4orce Studios - Cleveland, Ohio


I have worked in radio for 20 years. My broadcasts have been heard in 47 states and 30 countries. The 30 countries are thanks to CNN Worldwide Radio. Stations include Q92, WRQK, WNCX, WONE, WAKR, WIXV, WZAT, WJCU, WRUW, WCRS, ESPN Radio, CNN Worldwide Radio, and other networks and stations.


I have worked for various sports networks and recorded voiceovers for radio and TV. I was published in Scene magazine from 1989-1994 and again form 1997-2000. Click Here to read some of those articles. I also worked for the Cleveland branch of Warner/Elektra/Atlantic Records in the late 80's/early 90's.


My studio G4orce has recorded several national bands and bands all over NE Ohio. I have taken over 500,000 concert photos! I engineered, co-produced, mastered, and created the artwork for UFO bass player Pete Way's ALIVE IN CLEVELAND CD. G4orce photos are also featured on releases such as Michael Stanley's AMERICAN ROAD CD, Pete Way's ACOUSTIC ANIMAL CD, and American Dog’s SCARS AND BARS and FOAMIN’ AT THE MOUTH CDs.
