Mix Sting with Stevie Wonder, Seal, Jamiroquai and The Beatles and be poured a sonic-cocktail of Joshua Stedman whose sound resonates as a modern fusion of these timeless influential artists.
Inspired during siren-laden Manhattan midnights, foggy San Fran mornings, and the radiant heat from Miami’s sultry night life… Joshua’s triple-city canvas enriches musical sculptures carved from the introspective realities of life, relationship, and society's turbulent influences.
Classic soul nuances unleash a deep, open-ended rock-funk that underscores catchy melodic overlays... a sound woven from funk/soul/jazz roots, winding chord arrangements, interlaced subtleties on Rhodes, Wurlitzer and B3 ivories, and elusive guitar riffs atop deep organic bass lines.
Joshua’s addictive melodies and story-telling are fueled by a distinctly bright and smoothly breathy vocal that pours out an honesty that seduces the ear from fade-in to fade-out.
