About JosHUA
JOSHUA THOMPSON IS A FREELANCE DRUMMER AND VOCALIST BASED IN Salt Lake CITY,utah.
At age 3, he sang on his first recording session for his father's new country gospel album. He was paid in popcorn. A son of a preacher man, he found himself spending countless hours in a small town church with a stage full of instruments begging to be played. Summers were spent on tour with the family band. A tradition that continued into his high school years. In 2013, he began performing as the drummer and background vocalist for the 80s new wave band Wang Chung . A role he continues to this day. Since then, he has also joined forces with Wang Chung contemporaries Cutting Crew (Died In Your Arms). It was through experience in the professional music world that his craft as a songwriter began to take shape. Like so many sidelined by the pandemic, he used his time in isolation to write, eventually teaming up with Utah based artist and producer Joshua James to help create his debut ep "Little Bit Better."
