About

In the ’90s, Joe Scheirich and high school orchestra buddies Luca Bianconcini and John Hulcher formed the prog-rock band Joe’s Report, gaining popularity locally and regionally and releasing a couple of EPs and one full-length CD.

In 2001, Joe went on to form Ultratone with a more modern, melodic sound. Having gone through several lineups over the last two decades, today Ultratone includes Luca and John, with other old friends dropping in on tracks, all the while with Joe at the helm, recording in Ultratone Studio at his home in Louisville, Kentucky.

Five albums in, Ultratone has an impressive catalog that spans years and styles: a group of musicians who can pull from many influences while maintaining an unmistakable sound of their own. Atmospheric layers of sound, a powerful yet tasteful rhythm section, a vocal style with a lot of dimension, and intelligent, hook-laden songwriting.

Live, Ultratone shines with tight, emotional performances. You don’t want to miss this band.
