Biography

Born in Essex, England, Josh began to teach himself the piano at the age of 14 after discovering the work of Ludovico Einaudi on Classic FM. Two years later, he had composed and released his first solo piano album, Sunrise, which was described by Einaudi as being "full of character". Due to its positive reception, Josh was invited to perform his work at the prestigious Ravello Festival, and a year later had released his second album, Silent Embrace.

Josh's next project involved composing the soundtrack for Mr. Smoozles Goes Nutso - a cartoon adventure game by Steve Ince (writer of Broken Sword). In 2008, Josh released Those Nights - a much cleaner and more mature album, highlighting Josh's stylistic development.

2009 marked a departure for Josh, as he became more involved with electronic music. He released a techno album, Game Over, on the Torrentech netlabel, and began work as a remixer, beginning with Re-Drum's ambient/IDM track, Cyan. He currently lives in Berlin and continues to compose and perform his piano and string works, though to a lesser extent than in previous years.
