Aram Danesh and The Super Human Crew are Aram Danesh on guitar, Adam Goodhue on drums, Sam Bevan on bass, Jason Moen on Keyboards and four vocalists - Keith Pinto, Dan Wolf, Carlos Aguire and Tommy Shepherd.

Aram and company have created an omnivorous groove incorporating rhythms from all over the world, producing a harmonious vibe honoring all cultures and acknowledging the connection between all people in the global village. The debut CD, The Spot, which was released in 2005, garnered critical praise for its fresh, imaginative blend of diverse styles. On disc, The Spot was a multi-cultural extravaganza featuring the best talents from the San Francisco Bay Area's diverse musical communities - Afro-Cuban, hip-hop, Brazilian, rock, funk, reggae, and jazz. About.com called the collection "...A musical salad…well-crafted and fun listening," while URB Magazine/Rebel Organization writes "If this project were a Quinceñera, the blow-up castle in the front yard would be made of bright hip hop colors with rock guitar...while old world influences coyly flirt with young electro blips in white lacy dresses in the backyard."

Joe has appeared on recordings with Zion-I, Grippo "Circuits", Spencer Day, Will Bernard's Motherbug, The Disco Biscuits, VU, and Dj Zeph. Touring highlights include multiple domestic tours with Ringling Bros. Barnum & Bailey Circus and a successful tour with blues artist E.C. Scott.

Joe is a founding member of the Bay Area's Jazz Mafia, which includes The Realstic Orchestra, The Shotgun Wedding Quintet, Brass Mafia, and The Shotgun Wedding Hip-Hop Symphony. The Realistic Orchestra was nominated for Best Jazz Group in the Sf Weekly's Best of the Bay in 2003 and won the award for Best Jazz Group in 2004. Joe also plays an important part in other Bay Area Bands such as Brass Monkey, Boostamonte, Will Bernard's Motherbug, Phil Lorenz's Soultet, Will Blades, and The Mitch Marcus Big Band.
