“Most artists paint pictures with a brush, Josh Joffen paints beautiful pictures with his lyrics and his music.” A two-time winner of the Kerrville Folk Festival New Folk songwriters competition, Josh crafts songs that are by turns rousing, funny, poetic and insightful, blending modern and traditional folk and jazz influences in a rich palette of guitar voicings and open tunings. Josh tells stories and paints portraits of strangers you’ll instantly recognize and landscapes of far-off places and times.
