Joe Calderone is a composer, orchestrator, mix engineer and session bassist. His original compositions have aired on TV shows like Making It, Cannonball, Temptation Island, and Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grader. He graduated from Berklee College of Music in 2015 with a B.M. in Film Scoring. While at Berklee, he had the opportunity to study Bass with the likes of Victor Bailey and Joe Santarre, and scoring techniques with Michael Sweet, Sheldon Mirowitz and Kurt Biederwolf, among others. Throughout his studies in music, always analyzing, he has sought to take the best of a wide range of influences, from Tchaikovsky and Koji Kondo, to Death Cab for Cutie and Rush. Through his hard-rock influences, he became known for his aggressive rock finger style as well as his unique approach to bass line composition. In 2016 he released his solo E.P. “Isometry”. During that same year, he teamed up with fellow Berklee grads to write an album which sought to take progressive rock in a new direction. The project eventually became Arch Echo, whose debut in 2017 was met with critical acclaim and an enthusiastic following. Tours soon followed across North America, Europe and Japan with artists such as Plini, Vola, Jacky Vincent, Tony MacAlpine, Periphery and Dream Theater.
