Joe Hodgson – The Grass Is Greener
Joe Hodgson is a talented guitarist and composer who expands the boundaries of the guitar with his creativity. His musical style is recognizable and affects such trends as rock and roll, blues, baroque, jazz and traditional Irish folk.

After a four-year break, Joe Hodgson returns with a new double single. Side A contains the track called 'The Grass Is Greener'. This melodic musical composition sparkles with its amber rays of melismas and slow bends. Grace and elegance are combined in this track with high skill. 


Side B of this release is the track 'Shapeshifting' which has a more dynamic structure with complex rhythms and motifs in the style of classical and jazz. Rock parts are replaced by Irish jigs and stratospheric rapid ascending passages return again. In the climax, real driving rock n roll sounds, which goes into the final melodic part.  


Listen to the single 'The Grass Is Greener' below on Spotify and appreciate the skill and charisma of Joe Hodgson.
