Originally from the sunny town of Whakatū Nelson, Aotearoa New Zealand, these days Joe Ghatt resides in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland. Spending the last few years working at an undisclosed space company that builds rockets, Joe’s musical inspiration has always had a cosmic and otherworldly vision. Sure to please fans of Babe Rainbow and Allah Las and drawing from timeless sounds of 60s groups like The Seeds and The Byrds, Joe Ghatt has a knack for effortlessly fusing nostalgia with his own authentic sound, all recorded the old fashion way — straight to magnetic tape.
In a live setting; Joe and his energetic four piece band transform his humble recordings into a huge, jammy, psychedelic rock show that evokes positive vibes and compels everybody to dance. Joe Ghatt’s 2019 debut album, Banana Sludge has received cult-acclaim for its charming lo-fi psych-surf sound, featuring hit singles such as ‘Farewell’ and ‘Mammon’. Joe Ghatt’s freshly released sophomore album Caper, Joe Ghatt evolves his warbly psych pop and surf-infused rock with a plethora of exotic new influences, from Afro-Beat, Tropicalia, Bossa Nova, through to Latin American music and elements of Jazz.
