Denny Jiosa

Decidedly not geared toward purists, guitarist/composer Denny Jiosa's music blends cool Wes Montgomery-esque jazz with elements of rock & roll, gospel, R&B, and blues, growing out of his extensive experience as a wide-ranging Nashville session musician and producer. A native of Huntington, IN, Jiosa began learning the guitar at age seven; by 13, his band was performing at school dances around the area. During high school, Jiosa also played trumpet, French horn, and bass, and sang in the choir. Jiosa's early love was rock, especially artists like Steely Dan, the Doobie Brother...
