Johnny Gioeli

Johnny Gioeli (pronounced Gee-Oh-elly) is a melodic rock vocalist, who grew up in Lancaster, PA and began singing and playing music (including guitar, piano and drums) in his teenage years. Today he is widely considered to be one of the best vocalists in rock music - whether it is hard rock, melodic rock, or metal. Johnny is currently the lead vocalist for the band Hardline, Accomplice, Crush 40 and the Axel Rudi Pell band.

Johnny's musical career began in the early 80s after forming the band Phaze with his older brother, Joey. The band underwent reform and he started drumming with the band Killerhit in 1983 at the age of 17. Sharing vocal duties with Joey, the four-piece act hit the East Coast club circuit with an enormous amount of success, earning enough by 1987 to purchase their own lighting rig, truck and tour bus (purchased from Jimmy Buffett).
