Josh Smith was born October 7, 1979 in Middletown, Connecticut. Before he was 1, his family relocated to Florida, eventually settling in Pembroke Pines, a suburb of Fort Lauderdale. At age 3, he received his first guitar and at 6, he started taking guitar lessons.

Josh was exposed to the blues at an early age. He listened to a variety of artists, such as Muddy Waters, B.B. King, Albert King and T-Bone Walker. He also started going to concerts, including the Allman Brothers, Rolling Stones and Bruce Springsteen.

By 12, Josh was playing at established professional blues jams in South Florida, such as Musicians Exchange Café in Fort Lauderdale and Club M in Hollywood, FL.

Josh began sitting in with such greats as Jimmy Thackery, Tinsley Ellis, Kenny Neal, Lucky Peterson, Matt “Guitar” Murphy, Johnny “Clyde” Copeland, Double Trouble, Joanna Connor and Kim Simmonds, among others. Jimmy Thackery said of the 14-year-old, “Josh is three heartbreaks away from being a true blues guitar genius.” At 14, Josh released his first CD, Born Under a Blue Sign, and at 15, he released his second CD, Woodsheddin.

Josh Smith - Burn To Grow

Released: 2018
Size: 120.3 MB
Time: 52:30
File: MP3 @ 320K/s
Styles: Soul, Jazz
Art: Front


1. Half Blues [5:32]
2. Through the Night [5:01]
3. Watching You Go [3:40]
4. That for You Too [4:10]
5. Your Love (Is Making Me Whole) [3:03]
6. Look No Further [6:37]
7. Let Me Take Care of You [3:51]
8. What We Need [6:21]
9. You Never Knew [4:21]
10. She Survives [5:10]
11. Burn to Grow [4:39]

On Burn To Grow the guitarist continues what his previous two album releases already hinted at: Josh Smith strives for musical diversity while keeping the focus of his music on the blues. What makes contemporaries such as Derek Trucks and Warren Haynes so strong also enhances the sound of the guitarist, vocalist, songwriter and producer from L.A. Intricate horn arrangements mark some of the soul- and jazz-inspired songs on the new recording, enhancing his vocal skills which have continued to develop over the years. There are plenty of very good guitarists out there but very few guitar virtuosos who are fit to hold a candle to Florida-born Smith while at the same time impressing their audiences with their vocal qualities.

As a guitarist, Smith has achieved a level where he no longer needs to constantly push himself to the fore. Josh Smith knows how to set the course and develop arcs of suspense without steamrolling his listeners.

By 12, Josh was playing at established professional blues jams in South Florida, such as Musicians Exchange Café in Fort Lauderdale and Club M in Hollywood, FL. When Josh was 13, the Rhino Cats, house band at Club M, asked him to be the lead guitarist. Musicians Exchange owner Don Cohen was so taken aback by the talent of this young musician that he offered to help manage and develop Josh’s career.

The Café was renowned for bringing in the best national touring blues bands, and Josh was quick to learn how to approach these blues greats, many of whom would invite Josh to sit in with them, thinking it may be a “novelty” to have a 14-year-old kid playing the blues. The novelty quickly wore off and was replaced by musicians stopping, watching and listening as this “kid” wailed out blues licks better than many of the touring guitarists on the circuit. Josh began sitting in with such greats as Jimmy Thackery, Tinsley Ellis, Kenny Neal, Lucky Peterson, Matt “Guitar” Murphy, Johnny “Clyde” Copeland, Double Trouble, Joanna Connor and Kim Simmonds, among others. Jimmy Thackery said of the 14-year-old, “Josh is three heartbreaks away from being a true blues guitar genius.”
