BEHIND THE MUSIC

A Creative Presence  

Josh Hicks is a rising star in the Welsh music scene, making waves with his soulful and captivating sound. Having started his musical journey by working closely with Emeli Sandé in 2020. Josh has become an alchemist with his contemporary yet timeless pop sound infused with soulful jazz influences. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Adele, Duffy, and Ella Fitzgerald, his vocals are both powerful and emotive. Josh injects his own personality into his songwriting, drawing from personal experiences and unspoken feelings. Josh says; “growing up consistently engulfed by music, singing felt like second nature - something magical, until learning not everyone shares that same nature”. Now Josh strives to share his creativity and passion to the world!

 

Bursting onto the scene in 2023, Josh quickly gained recognition with his debut single ‘Self Seeking (The Highest Order of Selfishness)’ and follow-up track ‘Everything About You,’ both earning a coveted spot on BBC Radio Wales A-List and being added to Apple Music's prestigious ‘New in Pop’ editorial playlist.

Josh's live performances have further solidified his presence in the industry, as he mesmerizes audiences at venues throughout Wales and even had the honor of opening for Natalie Imbruglia. Fans have been quick to compare his unique voice to the likes of Adele and Sam Smith, while BBC radio presenter and TikTok sensation Bronwen Lewis noted similarities in tone to Ollie Alexander of Years & Years.
