Who are Joe Deninzon & Stratospheerius?

Melodic electric-violin driven progressive rock led by electric violinist/singer-songwriter Joe Deninzon

Joe Deninzon says “These songs speak to the turbulent times we have endured in the past year and a half. The inner storm raging inside of us, with the pandemic and the fight for racial justice and all the issues dominating our world.”

Joe is known for playing with Bruce Springsteen, The Who, Ritchie Blackmore, Trans Siberian Orchestra, Renaissance, Mark Wood, Peter Criss, 50 Cent, Sheryl Crow, Smokey Robinson.

Act One Magazine: “When you put distorted guitars up against a violin you get magic! I love it when artists push the boundaries of what is perceived as the norm. I tip my hat and bow my head in awe.”

Proglodytes: “sounding both ahead of the curve and accessible at the same time.”

Music From the Other Side of the Room:  ” hectic and heart-stopping.”

SkeletonPete.com: “progressive music that’s not afraid of a catchy chorus.”
