In the ’90s, Joe Scheirich and high school orchestra buddies Luca Bianconcini and John Hulcher formed the prog-rock band Joe’s Report. In 2001, Joe went on to form Ultratone with a more modern, melodic sound, recording today in Ultratone Studio at his home in Louisville, Kentucky.
Five albums in, Ultratone is atmospheric layers of sound, a powerful yet tasteful rhythm section, a vocal style with a lot of dimension, and intelligent, hook-laden songwriting. Live, the band shines with tight, emotional performances.
