Artist of the Week: Josiah and the Bonnevilles

Josiah and the Bonnevilles, aka Josiah Leming, is the embodiment of an independent artist who has always stayed true to his music, even when times were tough. From the 17 year old living out of his car and playing at any bar or open mic night that he could, to the 34 year old now playing sold out shows across the U.S., Josiah has worked extremely hard to get to where he is today.

In 2007, Josiah dropped out of his high school in Tennessee, lived out of his car, and traveled around the country playing music. At one point he drove to Atlanta, Georgia to audition for American Idol. He was trying to pursue his music career and helping financially support his family, which includes his four sisters and four brothers.

Josiah’s music style is often compared to artists like Noah Kahan and Zach Bryan. Much like these artists, Josiah weaves stories of struggles into beautiful, catchy songs. His voice is comforting and inviting; even when you’re alone, his music creates a sense of companionship.

Among Josiah’s top-streamed songs are unique covers of well-known songs, such as Bon Iver’s “Skinny Love.” He puts his country folk twist on pop songs, like his version of Justin Bieber’s “Ghost,” which has over 25 million Spotify streams. Josiah’s renditions uncover new meanings of the songs we’ve all heard countless times.

Back in October, Josiah released his thirteen-track album “Endurance,” and he’s currently touring until April. Nearly every city is sold out, so if you want to see Josiah and the Bonnevilles live, find tickets here and act fast! Josiah’s latest single just came out today.
