Joe Deninzon has got to be one of the busiest guys in rock music. For over a year, he’s been the violinist for the legendary band Kansas — which is in the midst of an extensive 50th-anniversary tour.
But Joe’s other focus is his group Stratospheerius… which melds rock, jazz, classical, and a bit of anything else. Stratospheerius has a new album which came out on October 11 (check out our review HERE).
Their new album is called “Impostor!” — with an exclamation mark. And it’s the culmination of six years of work. The pandemic threw a block in the timing. Then Deninzon produced the live Stratospheerius album, “Behind the Curtain (Live at Progstock)”. He and drummer Jason Gianni had to learn the ins and outs of video production for the DVD of that one. But the main thing that held up the release: the group wanted it done the right way.
Recently, Deninzon and Gianni talked with Mark Boardman about the new album, what it’s like to experience newfound success in middle age, impostor syndrome, and the challenges of scheduling live gigs amid all their other commitments.
