Singer / Pastor
Josh grew up in a family of musicians and started playing bass guitar as a child in the church band. Learning the guitar shortly after, in his teenage years, he had the opportunity to join a band, called “Smokin.” In his late teens and early 20’s, Josh played in several Rock bands, playing on Legends Cruises and stages up and down the east coast. In his 20’s, Josh decided to leave the rockstar lifestyle behind and settle down with his wife, Kendra, who he has known since they were neighbors at was 5 years old.
After having 3 daughters, they had a son, Leelynd, whom, they tragically lost the day he was born. They have since been blessed another daughter, making their family of 7 complete. After the loss of their son, Josh leaned into music and the church he pastors to find healing and purpose.
