About this episode
Originally from Funkstown, Maryland- Josh is a singer-songwriter now based in Kentucky. He’s toured with the contemporary greats including Tyler Childers, Colter Wall, Shooter Jennings, and Todd Snider- and has written hit songs for artists including Cody Jinks and Hayes Carll and is just an overall song-smithing son of a gun. Morningstar only has one album out currently - but it’s the kind of record where its content surpasses sophomore slumps. The manner in which Morningstar interweaves homegrown grit, humor, and heartache with a superman-like knack for rhythm is just out of this world. He’s someone who is not afraid of writing about the harsh realities in life but he’s also unafraid in still choosing to make those realities poetically stunning. So, join us today as our host, Robert Earl Keen, speaks with Josh about his upbringing, songwriting, and cowriting. Also, as an added bonus and a first for Americana Podcast, Josh Morningstar plays two full songs live Episodes and Bonus content available on YOUTUBE! https://www.youtube.com/@robertearlkeenofficial Donate to the show! https://tiptopjar.com/americanapodcast Instagram @robertearlkeen1 Have questions or suggestions?
