Joski Philosophy
Imagine - A brighter moment - you wake up one morning it is a bright day and you are suffused with a happy feeling - you feel free and liberated - you can do what you want - you can be whoever you want to be! - what a great feeling.... perhaps you can, at last, truly be - yourself!

ABOUT JOSKI
Sounds like – ‘Roxy Music’ meets the ‘Killers’ coming back from a ‘Yes’ concert…

JOSKI are a four-piece rock, pop and progressive band from London who play great songs with skill, passion, glamour and verve.

Formed in 2007 initially as a five piece but now with just one guitar JOSKI have several more gigs planned at cool venues in central London. Their big sound and great songs have been entertaining audiences at venues around London for several months now. We do play out of London too.

JOSKI are currently recording new tracks - 'Howard Roark' (Who is Howard Roark? - a character in the 1949 film "The Fountainhead") this song is up there now - 'Whadya Want' is new and also a new version of 'You're One' - properly recorded for the first time. Also another new song - "I know we're from the Stars" which will be on the new EP coming shortly!

The JOSKI sound has three main strands - the Glam rock-pop three minute 'hits' like 'Howard Roark' and 'She Loves', then there is the prog sound of crafted, longer, tunes like 'Fascinated' and 'Aliveoscope' which paint a slightly deeper picture maybe - and then there is a third strand where the pop/rock and the prog come together. an example of this is 'You're One'. So you see - there is a lot to choose from, and all under the JOSKI banner!

Glam or Nu-Glam - What is that?! - Well, we reckon it is time to chuck out the indie-alternative greyness of current rock bands, enough Converse already! Dress up a little - push a boundary or two or three - how did we all get so timid!? 'Glam' doesn't necessarily mean glitter - it just means having a bit of style and originality, wear a sharp suit even! Mind you - glittery things go a long way!

Enjoy

Watch out! - There's a JOSKI about!

We are:
Jenty – Keys and vox
Joski – Vocals and guitar
Kukat - Bass guitar
Xande – drums and percussion

Hi Joski,

we're not phishing, promise! You can't sign up for the free guide through our MySpace at the moment as the sign up is down so you'll need to go to our webpage at www.makeitinmusic.com to get a hold of it.
Let us know if you have any problems.

Hey whats up , this 2009 is a good time to start a revolution! let's know that the children grow up with the power of ballot initiatives in their hands. There is no reason why we will not win against corruption if we educate OUR friends about the problems and solutions we can all take part in. Know that there are changes in 2012 comming as in the mayan calander, people will wake up to the pyramid that has been controlling them the whole time and duplicate faith in humanity rather than dispiar. Educate your self then tell two people. I don't need you to give me any money, we just have to organize first. If you join me sooner than later, we will offer you an opportunity to be recognized for the begining of a massive civel revolution unlike the world has ever seen before. It take the power of your motivation to make this work. Tell two people and join the network at www.ballotnetwork.ning.com
This is a brand new opportunity for us, people, lets organize and reform the system. I can tell you, I have 8 years experience in political activism that opened my mind and I saw corruption in government most people don't know about, and those that do, don' know about the solution, untill now.

Hola!

Joski Joski! Glad you like the name change. Anyway, you don't need to change yours, and you are fab (and that saves a lot of trauma!). Ooh, the Grand - haven't been there for a while, so maybe we can pop down and swell the ranks.
