With his trusty buckets, and purrrrfect timing, he takes listeners on a musical journey that is both entertaining and inspiring. Josh's rhythmic talents know no bounds.

 “After a formal music education (BA, MA) and years of pursuing traditional percussion endeavors, I happened upon a street performer while on a trip to Florida. The beats of the streets just spoke to me. It just reached out and grabbed my soul! So I thought, why not take my years of marching band, drum corps, orchestral and drum kit and combine that into a street drumming experience.” Josh has honed his skills, becoming a true master of the bucket drumming art form.
