growing up as a youth in east-side Charlotte N.C. I was introduced to many forms of music whether it be Punk,Alt,indie,Rap, etc, but no other form of music has grabbed my attention like Reggae. The first time I heard Reggae was when I was about 8 or 9 years old, the album was Sublimes self-titled album, I was completely blown away! From then on out Ive been a loyal Reggae fan, From the mellow Ska grooves of Sublime to the militant Roots tunes of Tosh and Marley to the punky Dub Reggae of The Clash I was hooked. I recieved my first guitar at the age of 9 from my aunt who had an old one in one of her closets. I started playing songs I heard on the radio by ear at the age of 10. At 16 years old I played rythm and lead guitar in a struggling Ska/Punk band, with mediocre direction and bad managing. At the age of 18 I left the band to do some solo work. I started with a tape recorder and my Yamaha acoustic, Now I upped the technology with a 4-track recorder and a Epiphone Les Paul Standard. Now at age 19 Ive grown wiser, and far more mature with my music.My music is for everybody to enjoy, I dont want to make any money off my music. I make music for the sheer love of music, plain and simple.Peace and LoveJosh Livingston ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------------------------A genocide is happening and it's happening in Darfur.
