Dr. Joyner

Dr. Joyner is a 21st century American guitarist and composer, demolishing musical boundaries between such diverse genres as jazz, blues, avant-garde, ambient, space rock, and progressive rock.

Dr. Joyner's roots lie in the blues. However, his recent solo albums Nature and Voyage (2014) showcase his ability to compose impressive highly-immersive and deeply personal compositions that are most similar to space rock and progressive rock. In his collaboration with Case on Bass in Casebere and Joyner, Dr. Joyner and Case on Bass rid their instruments of music norms and embark on wild psychedelic tangents that redefine music and explore deep regions of the mind. C&J have landed 7 avant-garde albums to date.
