Joseph Strider joins the Gang on the Wolf and the bear

O'siyo my family! This is a Gathering for the Body, Mind & Spirit...sharing multi-Cultural arts, music, storytelling and friendship. Bringing the walls down... to find the common ground of the People! Join us as we welcome our Brother Joseph Strider back to the fire, as he shares new music and more insights with the Wolf and the bear Family. Acoustic guitarist Joseph Strider has covered a lot of musical ground in his career thus far. From boy soprano in school choirs, to playing with a cover band, Strider has spent the years developing his own unique style, a style that fits in no established genre and can best be described as modern Indigenous alternative. Strider received his first guitar at age nine. As a teen and young adult he gained valuable experience over a six year period of touring in his home state of Texas. In the years since he has refined his unorthodox playing style, determined to fully utilize the potential of the acoustic guitar. Inspired by guitarists such as Michael Hedges, Bruce Cockburn and Andre Segovia, the self-taught Strider has pursued his musical ambitions with a determination and eloquence that not many can match. No matter how frenzied the pace becomes, it is the music that moves Joseph, the voice of Spirit that he has been blessed to hear and to pass on, that inspires him daily, that fuels the prolific flow of new guitar pieces.
