Joey Tafolla "Infra-Blue"

Joey Tafolla (born May 30, 1962) is an American guitarist.

Born in San Diego, California, United States, Tafolla is the son of Rosie Hamlin and Noah Tafolla, the singer and guitarist of Rosie and the Originals, respectively. Initially a member of the heavy metal band Jag Panzer from 1984 to 1985, he joined Mike Varney's Shrapnel Records label soon after; releasing his debut album Out of the Sun in 1987, alongside the releases of other shred players such as Marty Friedman, Jason Becker, Paul Gilbert, Richie Kotzen, Tony MacAlpine and Vinnie Moore, among others. His second release in 1991, Infra-Blue, was a noticeable departure from the neo-classical stylings of his first album, and demonstrated a more standard instrumental rock-oriented sound.

Tafolla currently owns JTM Merchandising, an apparel and gear manufacturing company located in Huntington Beach, California.

Infra-Blue is the second studio album by guitarist Joey Tafolla, released in 1991 through Shrapnel Records.
