JOE 2.0 – Joe 2.0 Homepage (joe20.com)
JOE 2.0 was founded in Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 2011, by violinist, Joseph Ketchum.
JOE 2.0 was formed to see if a string quartet could play
rock and pop music in a powerful and non-lame way.
JOE 2.0 is comprised of an electrified string quartet (2 Violins, Viola, and Cello),
plus drums and the inimitable vocals of original “Cheap Trick” lead singer, Xeno.
JOE 2.0 uses painstakingly crafted analogue effects on the strings to emulate the sounds of
electric guitar, keyboards, bass, horns, and other things.
JOE 2.0 blends these sounds with the natural sound of the strings,
creating a rock/pop sound with a symphonic power to it.
It’s like a rock band and orchestra had a baby, and they called it “JOE 2.0”.
A “Rockestra” if you will, good citizen.
JOE 2.0 sometimes let’s Xeno play guitar so his hands don’t get too fidgety,
but for the most part, JOE 2.0 does not condone or allow the use of fretted instruments.
JOE 2.0 makes a few exceptions only for Xeno.
JOE 2.0 performs a wide variety of cover songs from many genres and eras.
Some of the songs are very pretty and intricate and elegant.
Some of the songs are savage and raucous and loud.
All of the songs are special in their own way, just like you, citizen.
Artists covered include but are not limited to:
The Beatles, The White Stripes, Gary Puckett, Antonio Vivaldi, Elvis,
The Who, The Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Green Day, James Brown, etc.
JOE 2.0 has 6 members. Joseph Ketchum and Xeno are two of them.
You can get to know the other members by sending JOE 2.0 a message or coming to a show.
You can try to use a medium or psychic to learn more names and info,
but unless they are a JOE 2.0 fan or friend, they won’t be able to help you.
Better to get your truth from the source.
Messaging JOE 2.0 or attending a JOE 2.0 is also a good way
to find out why JOE 2.0 is named “JOE 2.0”.
JOE 2.0 is not afraid of the robots.
JOE 2.0 will protect citizens who request protection from the robots.
When that time comes.
JOE 2.0 thanks you for your patronage.

Meet Tony
As a kid, I didn’t feel like I fit in with others because I always listened to 50’s and 60’s music. My mother loved all types of music so I was influenced by artists such as Elvis, Frank Sinatra, Sam Cooke, Ray Charles, Conway Twitty, Barry White, Doris Day, Dion & the Belmonts and others. So as you can see, I like everything with soul and feel when it comes to music.
Growing up, I remember listening to Elvis singing Kentucky Rain and In the Ghetto. I was a dreamer and would imagine myself on stage performing and thought, “If only I had the opportunity, I know I would sing with heart.” I was told if you don’t feel what you are singing, you can’t expect an audience to respond to what you are singing.
As a teen, my friends and I would try to mimic the Doo Wop groups from the 50’s. I remember when, in my late teens, I got my first guitar and played it ‘til my fingers bled.
As time went on, I went through a lot of growing pains with music. The toughest part was always trying to find the right group of people that could understand what I was looking for in music. Most people couldn’t feel the soul and quality from the artists I grew up listening to. I played drums for many years and the opportunity finally came to get out from behind the drums and perform an Elvis Tribute show. When I put on my first jumpsuit it felt right and there was a feeling of transformation that’s indescribable. I went from watching Elvis to portraying and singing his songs on stage.
I thank Adonai, my God, for giving me the ability to do what I am doing. Without Him I am nothing. And thank you to all my fans. Without you, it would all be for naught. I strive to give you 100% at all my shows. I’ve made many friends and Elvis fans alike. I’ve done shows and been to places I never would have dreamed of if not for Elvis and all of you.
My dreams of being on stage and performing have become a reality. I am married to a beautiful woman who loves me and supports me through it all. I have a hard working and supportive fan club committee who are a tremendous group of people to work with. And I would like to extend a very heartfelt thank you to all of you who are fans that attend my shows.
