Josh Cottrell gained a steady following after being featured in Knoxville, Tennessee's Market Square Summer Concert Series, as well as gaining a spot on one of the extremely popular Alex Rainbird Music YouTube compilations.
The 33 year-old, Knoxville native loves to tell a story with his music.
"Love, heartbreak, and relationships are all universal topics." He said, "It's easier for me to write songs about those things, things I've felt or personally experienced, but recently, I have been pushing myself to start thinking outside of the box. On this latest album, I was creating characters and perspectives completely separate from myself."
That effort was definitely reflected in the 2017 album "Making My Own Way." Songs like "The Captain" and "Lie to Me" take a step outside the songwriter's perspective and create an enticing world of their own.
Josh just released his single, My Ways (Demo). You can now listen to that everywhere that music is streamed! You may also find releases from his other band, The Griefers, streaming on all platforms as well!
