• Touring with Benjamin Francis Leftwich: Hear about Josh’s time on the road, including playing venues ranging from punk basements to grand churches, and how those experiences influenced his music.
• The Writing Process: Learn about Josh’s approach to writing songs, where lyrics come first, and how collaborating with other artists, such as Ben Leftwich, has shaped his creative process.
• New Music Insight: Get a sneak peek into his upcoming EP, A Few Honest Years in Paradise, and dive into the storytelling behind the latest single, Nova Scotia.
• Reflections on Youth and Time: Josh discusses how themes of love, loss, and the passage of time permeate his music, and how his personal journey has influenced the sound and feel of his upcoming project.
