Joshua Ketchmark is a talented Americana artist and singer-songwriter who hails from Nashville,Tn. He born in in a small town outside Peoria, Illinois. Growing up, he was exposed to a diverse range of musical influences, including the likes of Queen, The Beatles, Mellencamp, and Tom Petty. Joshua’s passion for music was ignited when he stumbled upon his mother’s acoustic guitar, and he began writing and performing music on his own.
His journey eventually led him to Nashville and then Los Angeles, where he had the opportunity to work with renowned producers and musicians such as Jack Joseph Puig, Michael Beinhorn, and Rob Cavallo, as well as artists such as Jonny Lang and Melissa Etheridge and the band Fuel.

Despite the highs and lows of his career, Joshua remained steadfast in his commitment to music, leading to the release of his critically acclaimed debut solo album, “List of Regrets,” which attracted the attention of magazines and major record labels. However, Joshua chose to remain an independent artist, forging his path in the music industry on his own terms.

Fast-forward to today; Joshua has just released his tenth studio album, “BLOOD,” a deeply personal and introspective album that documents his past. The album, which features 12 tracks, was produced and mixed by Joshua himself and includes appearances by some of the most talented musicians in the industry, such as drummer Zak St. John, bassist Ger Hoffman, and pianist Michael Webb.

The recording process took place in various studios throughout California, Arizona, Georgia, and Tennessee, with the final touches being added at Joshua’s studio, “Black Gold Speakeasy,” in Nashville. “BLOOD” was mastered by Michael Bozzi at Bernie Grundman Mastering in Hollywood, CA.

Joshua Ketchmark’s “BLOOD” is a testament to his unwavering passion for music and his commitment to creating deeply personal and moving art that resonates with audiences worldwide.
