Joe Fiorello - Lead Guitar, Musical Director

Joe Fiorello was raised in Queens NY. At the age of eight years old he watched a band on TV called "The Bay City Rollers", saw all the women going crazy over these musicians, and said to himself, "that's what I want to do for the rest of my life" Shortly there after, he was introduced to the rock group KISS, and never looked back again. By the age of eleven he learned how to play his first song "Stairway to Heaven". From that point forward, he took lessons on and off from a local guitar instructor, but pretty much is self taught. He learned music theory by purchasing books on the subject. Joe was in love with his guitar and practically slept with it. He would practice at an average of six to eight hours daily.

By the age of fourteen he was playing clubs and parties around the neighborhood with various bands. At the age of seventeen he joined a band called "Rumor Haz It" which almost got signed to Geffen records, but due to greedy management the deal was squashed. At the age of nineteen he joined a band called "White Trash". Due to creative differences and such, Joe left the band.

Joe has played as a studio musician; recording music ranging from jingles to up-and-coming Rock and Pop acts. He was mainly playing bass guitar during that time. Some of the music went on to be played on the day time soap opera "General Hospital"

Now Joe is playing lead guitar for DB King and The Disciples of Sound, and his rock cover band Atomic Krush along with Kim and Chris who are also fellow members of The Disciples of Sounds.
