I am excited to announce the released my song "She's My Wife." I actually wrote this song back in 2009 for my brother's wedding, but since then I have gotten married to my BEAUTIFUL wife Erin, who is featured with me on the album cover, and the song has taken on a more personalized meaning.

The song was written from the perspective of a groom having a conversation with his mother explaining his thoughts and feelings about his wife to be. This song was written for the mother and son waltlz dance at my brothers wedding, although listening to it now that I have my own wife, I can make my own meaning to the song which relates to my own marriage and feelings about my own wife. Over the years I have slightly revised the song to fit a bit more to my perspective, which I encourage others to do for themselves as well! My view on the song is finding someone who my heart loves (my wife Erin) and thanking God for gifting me with this person. "She became the star in my empty sky." Of course everyone is free to make their own meaning of the song but that is my meaning.

I would love to see this song used in other people's wedding and I hope this song encourages husbands and wives within their marriages and relationships!

Single

She's My Wife

I discovered How Deep The Father's Love For Us in 2021 when I started as a worship leader at my church. Originally written by songwriter Stuart Townend, this song touched my heart and rings very true to me and my own story of being pursued by God due to his deep love for me.  

For 25 years of my life I did not know Jesus or did I care to. I rejected him, I mocked him, and I blasphemed with no remorse about it. It wasn't until I was at the end of myself due to being trapped in the sin and darkness of sex, porn and alcohol did I soften my heart through a prayer for God to please save me. Jesus met me on that cold tile floor and lifted me up and showed me a love and confidence like I had never experienced before! 

The line "I will not boast in anything, No gifts, no power, no wisdom, But I will boast in Jesus Christ, His death and resurrection" is what I live for now. I spent 25 years of my life boasting about myself and how great and talented I was as a seemingly successful musician all to fill a hole in my heart that nothing in this world could fill. None of that matters anymore. The glory now goes to God and I will forever boast in Jesus Christ. 

Finally, the line "Why should I gain from His reward? I cannot give an answer, But this I know with all my heart, His wounds have paid my ransom" rings very true to me. Why should someone like me gain from the ultimate sacrifice which is Jesus Christ death for sinners? I have no answer for that, its beyond what my human mind can comprehend. Although I do know through the love that Jesus Christ has shown me, a love that I do not deserve, that his wounds really have paid my ransom and his death was not in vain, I AM SAVED! Jesus died for me because he loves me and Jesus died for you because he loves you. I will spend the rest of my life proclaiming his great love for the world, it's the very least I can do to repay his sacrifice for me and my sin. Come to Christ!

How Deep The Father's Love For Us

I am honored to announce the release of my first ever worship album entitled “He Finds the Beauty in the Broken.” I truly feel that these songs were God lead and I wrote and recorded this album within a month, which is very quick in terms of producing an album. I truly tried my best to let go of my opinions, not second guess music and lyrics and be fully lead by the Holy Spirit. I want to thank Jesus Christ who is my Lord and Savior for being with me during the making of this album and I pray that it reaches those who He intended it to reach!

God bless,

Josh

He Finds the Beauty in the Broken

Invisible

Deeper in Love

He Finds The Beauty in the Broken

Beauty in the Broken

The themes of this album include death, God, angels, heaven, hell, and saying goodbye to those you love.With big guitars, big drums, guitar solos with a modern electronic touch. I would definitely say that this album is my most experimental release to date.

LYRICS

Holding just a little
Turns into a lot
I’m caught in the middle
Barely holding on

They all say I’m lost and alone 
They all say I’m lost and alone 

So I pick up the pieces 
Hold onto Jesus
Because I don’t wanna live a lie
Pick up the pieces 
Hold onto Jesus
Because I don’t want to live or die

I don’t want to live or die

Give me something to believe in 
Like I’ve never known
Sanctify my life of regret 
Break my heart of stone

They all say I’m lost and alone 
They all say I’m lost and alone 

So I pick up the pieces 
Hold onto Jesus
Because I don’t wanna live a lie
Pick up the pieces 
Hold onto Jesus
Because I don’t want to live or die

I don’t want to live or die
I don’t want to live or die

I have tried to do this alone
Now I know you’re my only hope

To pick up the pieces 
Hold onto Jesus
Because I don’t wanna live a lie
Pick up the pieces 
Hold onto Jesus
Because I don’t want to live or die

Pick up the pieces 
Hold onto Jesus
Because I don’t wanna live a lie
Pick up the pieces 
Hold onto Jesus
Because I don’t want to live or die

I don’t want to live or die
I don’t want to live or die

(Pick up the pieces, pick up the…)

Pick up the pieces
Because you got a lot
Pick up the pieces 
Give your live to God 


This song was written from the perspective of someone who is trying to get through life on their own. Day after day racking up more pain and trying to bury it and ignore it and white knuckle their way through life. They don't have the will to live, but they also don't want to die, something that is all too prominent in today's day and age. 

They so desperately want to have hope in their life and no longer be the hardened shell of a person that they have become. So they decide to surrender to the One who has been with them the whole time, Jesus! 

They begin to pick up the pieces of their life using Jesus as their strength to do so. They finally realize they cannot do this life alone and that Jesus is truly their only hope not only for their life on this earth, but more importantly, their eternity!

I do not own the right to this song. It is just a cover, and a genuine one at that.

The Wolves Act 1 Act 2 (Bon Iver)

Hello and welcome,

I am an indie singer/songwriter, music producer and worship leader based out of Tacoma, WA. It has always been a challenge for myself and others to find a comparison between me and other artists. 

Writing, recording and performing music for over 16 years, I have had the honor of being involved in many aspects of the music business. Some notable moments in my career are performing live at SXSW in Austin Texas, The Viper Room in Los Angeles, The Hard Rock Cafe and the Berklee Performance Center in Boston as a solo artist and within various bands. I have also performed on and produced over 8 albums and multiple single releases that range from Hard Rock to Singer/Songwriter to Children's Music. I am an alumnus from both Berklee College of Music in Boston where I studied voice and was awarded the Berklee Achievement Scholarship and Musicians Institute in Los Angeles where I studied guitar. 

As of 2017, I have shifted gears back into writing and recording songs independently as a singer/songwriter. My hope is to help heal and inspire others through my music. As a devout Christian many of my songs have Christian themes and my ultimate goal is to bring Glory to God through my music and spread the hope of Jesus Christ to others. I reside in Gig Harbor, WA with my wife and 2 children, Lydian and Isaiah, and I lead the Worship for Local Church Gig Harbor. I write, record and produce all my own music independently out of my home studio.
