About Me

Hi my name is Josh Collier; I’m a 19 year old Guitarist, singer and songwriter. I’ve been playing guitar for 10 years now and writing songs for 5 years. Over the past few years I’ve been working with a number of local bands from the Pontypridd area, trying to build a name for myself. I have experience teaching guitar and live sound techniques, as I mix bands in a local venue in Pontypridd. I have always been into music since I was very young, listening to my father’s old LPs and extracting all the musical styles into my own individual style. For me being original is more rewarding than sounding like every other band or guitarist. In the future I aim to become a recognised songwriter within the music industry, resulting in my musical style being stamped around the world. I would also be interested in being a session guitarist at some point in my life.
If any folk are wondering "oh I know the name Collier from somewhere", well my dad is Alan Collier formerly of the band’s "The Stereos", "Good Habit", and even the "Racing Cars" to some extent. But I aint as good as he was AHHAHAHA!!!
