Joe's webpage claims that "as a young child in the Bronx, Joe Giacoio was abandoned in a music store and raised by a pack of acoustic guitars." True or not, Joe has won numerous awards for both his acrobatic guitar playing and quirky songwriting. Funny and poignant at the same time, Joe writes about topics such as Superman, pyromania, love, and his own fabulous hair. His guitar playing is influenced by Preston Reed and Michael Hedges; Joe has been featured on the "Guitar Gods and Goddesses" stage at the Falcon Ridge Folk festival.
