Knecht says, «This is the video play through of the title track from my album Future Endeavors. It features Max Boras on Guitar and has Jason Stewart on Drums. The album was mixed by Shaun Michaud and the artwork was done by John W. Beaumont (Tabernacle Arts And Designs) The Video was edited by Dylan Brown».

Joseph Knecht, from Tabernacle, New Jersey, USA, has been playing music since he was a small child. He started out with piano when he was five and picked up the guitar a year later. Bass came along in high school and he attended Berklee College of Music to further his music education. The track A New Beginning,

Looking to share the music he was writing and playing, he created his instrumental solo project Knecht, where he plays everything from classic rock to more modern progressive metal. He performs originals and covers as well as teaches private guitar lessons.

A typical song starts with the rhythm, for him the rhythm guitars by themselves should be interesting and be able to garner attention through the piece. While he is doing this, he is thinking about what he might want the other instruments to be doing as well as keyboard sounds if there will be keyboards. The track We Chillin,

26 May Knecht`s new album Future Endeavors was released and permafrost wrote about his self-titled EP Knecht, and he recently reach out to us to write about his new album.
