A native of Cedarburg, Wisconsin, Josh Thompson began pouring concrete with his
father at the age of 12, giving him first hand insight about the trials of hard-working men
everywhere. After arriving in Nashville in 2005, Thompson instantly began writing and
quickly established himself as a country artist on the rise. He received his first major
songwriter credit with a song called “Growing Up Is Getting Old” which is the title track
of Jason Michael Carroll’s current album. Thompson formed a band and drew in a huge
fan base by playing raucous, energetic live shows all over the country. Josh’s raw talent,
in both songwriting and performing, caught the attention of hit songwriters and
eventually led to a major record deal with Columbia Nashville. Thompson’s blue collar
lifestyle influences every song he has written, as he tells his stories with candor, honesty
and a good-natured spirit. His debut single, “Beer On The Table,” is one of the most
down-to-earth working man's anthems in years, a look at the dance between work and
play, and the hard-won, easy-go nature of money that ties them together.
That work ethic, the honesty in his writing and the energy in his performances have
combined to make Josh a powerful new voice in country music. His Columbia Nashville
debut, Way Out Here, showcases a man who has lived the music he makes. Produced by
Michael Knox (Jason Aldean) Way Out Here features 10 songs solely written or cowritten
by Josh.
