Josh Ward
Born May 15, 1980 in Houston, TX and raised on country music, Josh Ward's first musical influence came from singing old gospel hymns at church. Later down the road, inspiration came from Willie, Waylon, Merle, George Jones, and George Strait. While riding the highschool Rodeo Circuit, Josh polished his vocal and guitar playing skills while singing on the tailgate of pickup trucks between events.

Josh has come a long way since playing on tailgates at the local rodeos. He joined his first band in early 2003 playing local honky-tonks and bars. Most recently he had the privilege of playing with the Southern Breeze Band out of Liberty, Texas. Southern Breeze being one of the most popular Texas Swing Bands in the state gave Josh the stage time and experience needed to stretch out on his own and pursue a life long dream.

If you get a chance to see a show, it won't be hard to see why Josh Ward is turning heads everywhere he plays. His captivating voice and original sound go way beyond his 24 years. Whether it's traditional country, old time rock n roll, or Texas Music Fans looking for a good time, he leaves no one disappointed, and everybody asking for more.
