Joe Beier is an American guitarist, songwriter, and producer based in Minneapolis. Since the age of nine, he has had a fascination with exploring the range of sounds a guitar can make by writing songs that spark his curiosity and recording them. After the release of his 2010 self-titled instrumental guitar album and 2011 Christmas album, Joe has continued to expand how he hears, feels, and sees music, never locking himself into one genre or one sound. In 2015, he co-formed the rock duo, BEIER, whose 2017 release Think Twice paints a sonic picture filled with wide-eyed song arrangements, splattering guitar acrobatics, fat grooves, and soaring vocals. In 2020, Joe released a collection of introspective, mostly improvised acoustic and electric guitar pieces that create a soundscape of textures and a deep feeling of space. Joe continues to work on a variety of material he plans to begin releasing in 2025 while he also produces music for other artists. He plays with The Blenders, tours as the guitar tech for The Revolution, and has performed with The Potash Twins, and various other artists. Joe also performs weekly, teaches guitar and raises an energetic toddler during the weekdays.
