  • Description

    Though born in San Francisco, Nashville singer-songwriter Josh Gray grew up thousands of miles away in Maryland - He got his first guitar at age 16 but didn't play his first live show until 15 years later - When asked what took so long, he simply says, "I wasn't ready"

    This theme of taking the time to get things right becomes apparent when you hear his music. His thoughtful and often poetic lyrics stick with you long after the songs end. Josh Gray's sound is a mixture of the folk, blues, country, and rock that first inspired him to pick up a guitar. He's a storyteller, protest singer, and poet, bridging both generations and genres to form his signature style of songwriting. 2015 saw Josh Gray release his self-titled debut EP recorded in Frederick, MD. That year Josh Gray put nearly 30,000 miles on his car traveling all over MD, PA, WV, and VA. Sometimes seven nights a week, playing shows and open mics.

    Looking to improve his skills, Gray moved to Nashville in 2016. Wrangling together some of the best musicians in Music City he formed his band, Josh Gray and the Dark Features. "Songs of the Highway" was recorded to tape at the renowned Bomb Shelter in East Nashville. Since its release, it has garnered glowing reviews in Nashville and beyond. This second album landed Gray a distribution deal in the Netherlands. It is re-relased here with the tracks from his debut EP added as bonus tracks.
