The viceral groove of funk combines with the vintage sounds of blues and rock to create the musical cocktail that is Joshua Matheson. Influenced heavily by artists such as Jamiroquai, Eric Bibb, John Mayer, Bob Marley, INXS and the Red Hot Chilli Peppers amongst many others, Joshua has found his own groove playing simplistic Blues-funk with a Pop edge. Joshua’s musical journey began at the age of 2 years old when he received an electronic drum kit as a birthday present. As a young boy his favourite thing was to smash those little pads and make a huge racket. Music was always a big part of his life. As a teenager he found his love for playing the guitar, and was constantly around music.
