Cellojoe

CelloJoe is an anomaly in the world of cellists. By combining cello with beatboxing, he has created a unique genre: classical hip hop. Looped and layered beatboxing beats (vocal percussion) and funky cello form a rich soundscape for intelligent lyrics; CelloJoe spreads joy, laughter and consciousness raising vibrations. CelloJoe's eclectic sound also incorporates the style of old time, jug band, blues and kids's music. CelloJoe is the world's first long distance musical bike touring cellist. In 2007-2008, he rode with the pleasant revolution, a 5,000 mile bike tour from north san juan, california to palenque, chiapas, mexico. In 2009, he did a 500 mile bike tour through Utah with SHAKE YOUR PEACE! watch videos at youtube.com/cellojoe gingerninjas.com CelloJoe - Cello & Beatbox | CelloJoe.com | CDs at CelloJoe.bandcamp.com International bicycle touring vagabond troubadour cellist beatboxer
