​    At a time when many young Country Artist’s are emerging and leaning towards the modern sounds on “Country” Radio, Joshua Michael is doing the exact opposite. Born and raised in East Troy, Wisconsin – Joshua Michael is a Neo-Traditional Nashville Recording Artist who will be releasing his highly anticipated Debut EP in the fall of 2025.

    When Joshua sings, his warm baritone voice is drenched in: (Pedal) Steel Guitar, Fiddle and a twangy Electric Guitar. Joshua “tips-his-hat” to those before him, singing songs by Country Legends such as: George Jones, Merle Haggard, Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash, Hank Williams Sr. and many others. That being said – His covers by Country Icons such as: George Strait, Alan Jackson, Randy Travis, Daryle Singletary and Keith Whitley stand out.

    “…looks and sounds like a young George Strait…” and “… sounds like Randy Travis and Alan Jackson…” are examples of the many comparisons that come to mind. Joshua is only 23 years old, but has already developed a reputation for being “Real Country”. When asked to define what Country Music is, Joshua says: “… it’s songs of life, an’ love, an’ cryin’, an’ dyin’, heartache, cheatin’, drinkin’, dancin’, and havin’ a good time…”. It’s no wonder why he’s becoming one of the “go-to” Country Artist’s for many “Real Country” loving fans.

    From the “smooth-as-honey” vocals; to his impeccable song choice night in and night out (Cover Songs and Original Songs), it’s a real treat to to see Joshua Michael perform live. That being said – Joshua is beginning to play all over the Midwest area, so check out his calendar and come hear this young Country Artist for yourself!
