Singular Artists Present: Joshua Hyslop, Dublin

Joshua Hyslop biography

Joshua Hyslop is a Canadian folk singer-songwriter from Abbotsford, British Columbia, Canada. He has been described as having an amalgam of influence in the classically-romantic tradition of Damien Rice, Ryan Adams, Iron and Wine, and Sufjan Stevens. Like the said ballyhooed folksters before him, Joshua is inspired to write largely as a result of the people and relationships surrounding him, while also subjecting his songs to his own vulnerabilities, doubts, and conflicts. He integrates these revelations with his agenda of lyrical candidness, creating an expressive and open art form. "Josh's whispered, deliberate songwriting and roots infused compositions are intricately built around soft instrumentation and dynamic collaborations that recall a more adult contemporary re-envisioning of the type of sound Elliot Brood and the Acorn have had such great success touring the country with."
