I edited my profile with Thomas Myspace Editor V4.4 (www.strikefile.com/myspace)
Josh Bowker is an amiable looking character with reasonably long curly hair, he is most commonly found at home listening to music usually of some folky, psychedelic, alternative, country americanaish variety, making his own music, drinking tea and gorging himself on biscuits, or wandering the streets of Bury St Edmunds.
Josh is a multi-instrumentalist (though not quite as multi as he would like, mandolin, banjo, piano, these are just a few of the instruments Josh is proficient enough to play three blind mice on, but one day wishes to master).
Josh first picked up the bass guitar at the age of fourteen and soon decided "hmm, I'm rather good at this (in a very non-egotistical way), I think I'll try and make a living out of it". Then one day at the age of fifteen Josh thought "hmm, well I can play bass rather well, I think I'll try the guitar" so Josh bought himself a telecaster. Whilst simultaneously learning guitar and bass Josh discovered he wasn't a half bad baritone either, so he started singing and writing his own songs.
Josh has played with several bands, most notably is Hector's Liberty, along with occasional co-writer and Josh's musical soul mate Jono Absolon, gigging buddy, Luke Sidaway, and, various different drummers and rhythm guitarists. He has also played and sang for Feline Monsters, and Is currently(ish) one half of acoustic duo Kurt & Josh who have an unreleased EP entitled "Ninjas of The Catering World" (you think thats weird check out the names of the songs on said EP, wacky names appears to have been the order of the day, well for Josh anyway, Kurt just nods and smiles with a quiet air of desperation about him that pleas; "Will this crazy hippie just leave me be!")
Despite these various projects, Josh likes to work alone, and this page is the result of his solo musical endeavors. Josh's style has best been described by Jimi Andrews (with whom Josh once attended a music performance diploma thingy m' bob) as "funky, folky, psychedelic, britpop" But that was ages ago when Josh did in fact play funky folky psychedelic britpop, now it tends to lean more towards the folk, and not much else on that list, perhaps some shades of psychedelia, but now with added countryesque overtones.
One more thing
Josh likes to talk about himself in the third person
