BIOGRAPHY

Hailing from deep country and gospel roots, Josh Helms has dedicated his life to honing the craft of songwriting and delivering those songs to fans across the country in a live show that is second to none. Described as a “wild country music experience” Josh and his band pack their live show with energy and excitement, playing his own songs as well as hits from a who’s who list of the greatest country artist covering the last 5 decades. Ask anyone who has seen Josh and his band perform and they will tell you that they did not leave until the bar lights came on and the band left the stage.

While in college Josh was selected to be a finalist on USA Network’s Nashville Star 2 years in a row. During these trips to Nashville to sing at both the Wildhorse Saloon and The Stage on Broadway Josh fell in love with Nashville and everything the city had to offer. “I knew then that I had to move here and steep myself in the craft of writing and performing country songs. I was hooked!”

With a large catalogue of songs, Josh continues to write with plenty of hit songwriters and publishing companies in Nashville. “As far back as I can remember I’ve been singing and even before I started writing I was making up my own words to songs on the radio,” Josh admits. “Writing is how I share my heart with the world. It’s my lifeline.”

Currently Josh is performing weekly at Music City Bar, Jimmy Buffet’s Margaritaville and other clubs on lower Broadway and around Nashville. A schedule of where he is playing along with songs and more information can be found at www.reverbnation.com/joshhelms or www.joshhelms.com.
