​ THE GENERAL DANCE - releasing 2/7/25
This album features 11 of my original
compositions played by a world class
group of musicians that I feel lucky to
work with and call my friends. Gary
Wheat, Choko Aiken, Nick Walker,
CJ Brown, and I spent a couple days
recording at Ivy Manor in Sheffield
back in July. It was a special couple of
days recording because we were all
comfortable with the material, felt at
home in the studio, and at ease
working with each other as well as
our engineer Jared Przybysz and his
crew.
​​
After that, the album was mixed by
Jared and then mastered by
Dave Darlington at Bass Hit
Recording, NYC.
Faith Carpenter did the art and
design for the full album that you see
above plus album art for two singles.
Videographer, Blake Butler filmed
and edited two full length videos
for the albums two singles.

It’s been quite the process to get this
all together, but it’s almost here and I
can’t wait to share it with you all!
​
With love and gratitude,
Josh
