I had a sweet opportunity to interview Joseph Strider to talk about his music intelligent lyrics and we get indepth talking about the humanity and the world. Joseph's powerful lyrics and music are incredible timeless masterpieces that have a powerful message and strong imagery tune in and listen!
Music Review: Unruffled sounds of tranquility “appeases me” Calm placid is the gentle sea “feeling free” dewy grass and misty haze creates a white satin maze drawing away from all worldly things. Being with mother natures rings. Nature’s essence is a passive contemplation of soft-silence, a silhouette wind and rippling creek, serve to relax the mild and the meek. Discovering the world around us drawing pictures with the clouds like a innocent child. Celebrating our brotherhood as one. Music inspires the soul, and educates us, takes us on a journey of experiences Joseph Stiders timeless masterpieces have that certain magic that inspires everyone and they deliver a powerful message to all mankind.

A Little Bit About Joseph Strider
A Little Bit About Joseph Strider
Music is not merely a harmonious blend of various sounds. It is a form of communication that conveys more meaning than words alone can provide. Music evokes thoughts and emotions in us in a fashion that defies definition. It has the ability to inspire us to reach out, to feel, to live, to connect us to one another, to remind us that we are not unique nor alone in what we think and feel.
A musician that opens himself to the music that he creates, that allows it to flow through him without limiting it, is able to communicate with the listener on the deepest levels of our ability to understand, to convey concepts that resonate within our soul.
Joseph Strider is such a musician. When one listens to him perform, one is transported from the hurried world in which we spend much of our time to a place where time is suspended and we have the leisure to be still and remember the finer, nobler things in life, kindness, caring, the joy of open and honest connection with one another. Joseph's music is a pleasure to hear on a surface level, as one performs the day to day tasks that comprise our lives or as a means to relax at the end of the day once those tasks are completed, but the true value of Mr. Strider's music lies in the way that his songs touch us on that deeper level, the way that they stay with us and speak to us of our common humanity and the rewards to be found in being honest and kind to ourselves and to one another.
Joseph Strider was born in Texas where he began his lifelong journey as a singer/song writer. His influences are wide-ranging, from his Lipan Apache heritage and hard rock roots to the music of such guitar masters as Bruce Cockburn, Michael Hedges and Andre Segovia. He spent six years touring Texas as the lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist in a rock/metal band. His growing knowledge, experience and love of music led him to the acoustic guitar, the instrument that would travel with him on the next leg of his journey. He has blended his beginnings, resulting in music with a folk/alternative twist and the sound that is uniquely Joseph Strider.
He is an experienced musician who enjoys performing his extensive repertoire of original material as well as variations of his favorite covers. In addition to his melodic vocals and rhythms, he executes a number of dazzling instrumentals played with the signature style that he continues to develop. His dream is to one day become a guitarist's guitarist, to achieve a mastery of his art that allows him to utilize the full potential of his chosen instrument. His efforts to attain his dream are mesmerizing to experience.
After an unfortunate absence Joseph re-emerged on the music scene in Cranford, New Jersey at the annual Peace Fair in August of 2008. From that moment to the present he has never failed to delight audiences with his multi-faceted compositions and dynamic stage presence.
Joseph's heritage is as much a part of who he is as his music. He is a staunch supporter of Indigenous issues, volunteering his time and musical talents to assist in the effort to educate society on the atrocities commited against the People of the First Nations throughout history and today.
