Progressive rock band Joe Deninzon & Stratospheerius spent six years making their sixth album, “Impostor!” now out on 7d Media (City Hall Distribution). The songs share stories of emotional battles Joe has observed in his life and the outside world.  

“Sometimes you write a bunch of songs and don’t see the thread that binds them together until they are all on one album.”

The title track addresses impostor syndrome and the epic “Chasing the Dragon” about “midlife crisis and unrealized dreams and expectations, ‘Are we ever satisfied?’ The dragon represents that elusive goal, always just out of reach.” The song features guest vocalist Chloe Lowery (Trans-Siberian Orchestra).

“Impostor!” is released on Trey Gunn’s 7d Media and features Joe (electric 7-string violin, acoustic violin, viola, chin cello, lead and background vocals, and producer), Michelangelo Quirinale-(Guitars), Paul Ranieri (bass), Jason Gianni (drums), and Bill Hubauer (keyboards). “Impostor!” is mixed and mastered by Rich Mouser (Tears for Fears, Dream Theater, Weezer).  

Joe’s music’s been compared to Rush, Muse, Dream Theater, and Kansas, who welcomed Joe into the band in May 2023. “While Kansas became my main gig, it was my work with Stratospheerius that got their attention. Looks like all that “dragon chasing” paid off for Joe and his bandmates!
