The son of Mark Crabtree of Burnley-based professional audio equipment manufacturer AMS Neve, Joe lived in nearby Read and was educated at Clitheroe Royal Grammar School.

Crabtree began his drumming career at age 11 studying with a local self-taught drummer, Harry Hindle.

It was while studying with Hindle that Crabtree was first introduced to the drumming of Dave Weckl via his instructional video The Next Step.

Crabtree cites this as a defining moment in his understanding of what was possible on the drums.

He started playing live shows at age 14, and began teaching drums to local drummers at age 15.

Having taken up guitar at age 12, he also taught guitar to beginner students for a number of years.
