JOSH GILBERT is both a solo artist and band that has elements
founded on pop/rock, while incorporating indie/alternative,
southern rock, blues, soul, and even a bit of gospel into their own
brand of positive 'Indie Inspirational-Rock'.
All his life, Josh has been performing both in and outside of the church, in Chattanooga, TN and beyond -- to touring nationally and internationally, both solo and with a band. Josh's band primarily consists of long-time multi-musician bandmate and brother Matt Gilbert; as well as drummer Ben Phillips (cousin), and guitarist Casey Bryant (brother-in-law), to round out the JOSH GILBERT BAND.
Although Josh Gilbert grew up singing classical music in choirs, his modern voice has a sound in the vein of such as NeedToBreathe, Sanctus Real, Tenth Avenue North, John Mark MacMillan, etc.. His original songwriting and influences also draw from mainstream acts like U2, Coldplay, Muse, Switchfoot, to Ray Lamontagne, Stevie Wonder, Sting, Paul Rogers...etc... With a passionate and soulful voice, Josh Gilbert's music features a dynamic vocal range, creative and catchy hooks, tight rhythms and picturesque lyrics.
Josh Gilbert feels led to share his passionate and original music with a wide array of audiences, not only for churches but for all stages, venues & settings that will allow him to share his messages about life, love, spirituality and a relationship with God.
Josh and the brothers have performed nearly 1000+ shows, and 44 states, 5 national/west-coast tours, etc...
Today Josh regularly travels around the US and internationally, connecting with many different churches as well as venues, including the likes of River's Edge Community Church in Montreal, Canada; Mosaic Churches across the U.S.A. & Toronto, Ontario, Canada; as well as the featured performer for VOXTROPOLIS International Festival & IMN Conference in Detroit, MI for the past 6 years; also notable appearances at Riverbend Festival (TN), J-Fest (TN), & Forecastle Festival (KY).
