Joe Goehle

Born: January 24, 1990

Joe comes to music from a place of curiosity. Throughout his earliest years, Joe has been interested in exploring how things work and how humans understand their world. His development in music was no different, as he began to explore a multitude of musical instruments in non-traditional ways. With encouragement from local Buffalo musicians, Joe was able to imagine and execute a range of music that spanned the entire gamut of musical genre. He picked up the double bass and began frequent work as a sideman and bandleader throughout upstate New York. While studying with Ottawa bassist John Geggie, Joe was exposed to even more musical styles, eventually settling him into a deep study of modern classical music and the use of improvisation in this setting
