"Joshua Cockerill is f***ing amazing. Buy his record. Now."
- Serena Ryder
'As a songwriter, Joshua is one of the bright lights on the Canadian scene, and has one of the best new voices I've heard. Both sonically and lyrically, his album towers above any first attempt I've heard recently. I'm going to wager that Joshua will be around for quite some time.'
- Justin Rutledge
[The Trick With Your Heart I'm Learning To Do] is the 21-year old's debut disc and it reveals an artist of strong potential. He has a relaxed, melodic vocal style and a deft touch as a lyricist. Boosted by Ryder's harmony vocals, jaunty opening cut "Dance With You" is tailor-made for radio play. This is a highly promising beginning."

Toronto songwriter Joshua Cockerill found his country roots growing up in Alberta. After moving to Toronto, he took to writing and performing alternative country music, reflecting his western pride with an eastern big-city sensibility. After kicking around the local music scene for a few years, Joshua decided to break his piggy bank and independently finance his first recordings. "I've known I wanted to be a musician since I was ten years old," says Cockerill, "You could say that everything I saved up over the years was preparing for the making of this album."
His debut album, "The Trick With Your Heart I'm Learning To Do", is due out in November, 2009, and features guest appearances by Serena Ryder, Justin Rutledge, Jack Marks, Greg Cockerill, and Dustin Bentall, among others.
