Joe Stump
Joe is currently in the studio tracking guitars for the forthcoming Holy Hell cd (see our Tom Hess interview), Joe also has a new solo album in the pipes with all the material composed, recording should commence after the Holy Hell tracks are done.

Joe has also recorded another new instructional DVD, "Neo-Classical Guitar 3". This DVD focuses on Baroque style classical pedal point and linear playing. As with the previous DVD, it contains quite a bit of instructional content, performance footage, and yes, plenty of gratuitous shredding. It should be released by the Shred Academy in June sometime.
