JOE STUMP: Guitar Virtuoso To Perform In Israel For The First Time, Single Show In January
October 15, 2014
Progstage Productions officially announces the upcoming show of the veteran shred guitarist, one of the ultimate virtuosos, Joe Stump, for a single show in Israel, which will take place at the Gagarin Club, Tel Aviv, on 31.1.2015. Other than being on of the finest in his field, Stump is also the guitarist of bands such as EXORCISM, RAVEN LORD, REIGN OF TERROR and his own solo project.
Heading back to Stump's past, 1960 born, study music at Berkley College and graduated in 1982, in that period of time he was firstly introduced to the guitar playing style of Yngwie Malmsteen, other than already being strongly influenced Ritchie Blackmore and Jimi Hendrix. Evidently, Stump endorsed various elements from Malmsteen's Neo-Classical playing into his own craft as can be heard from his tunes.
Starting his career in the early 90's, Stump released a large variety of albums that in time placed him as one of the top American Shred guitarists, starting from his debut solo album, tracing back to 1993, "Guitar Dominance". His second album, "Night Of The Living Shred", even drew the attention of the mighty Guitar World magazine that commented: "...The best Neo-Classical guitar oriented album since Yngwie Malmsteen's 1984 solo release!".
Since then, Stump release more than 12 studio albums, through his solo efforts and his bands, the latest being the international band EXORCISM's debut, "I Am God", which introduces Stump's Neo-Classical shredding into the veils of Stoner / Doom Metal for the first time.
Also to be featured on the upcoming show in Tel Aviv, the local shred guitar virtuoso Evegeny Berger, which will be showcasing his abilities alongside Stump, and serving as Stump's band, two members of the local Heavy Metal band, SWITCHBLADE, Federico "FedeRock" Taich (Bass) and Moshe Sabach (Drums) will be accompanying this technical, yet highly classical journey.
Joe Stump's show is limited to 250 Tickets only, first 50 tickets are on a special low price sale of 159 NIS through Progstage Productions' website.
