Josh Langston Singer/Songwriter Americana/Folk rock/Country ............Josh Langston is a man of “This is who I Am” merit. With his in your face, take it or leave it attitude, he has been on a road of many twists and turns that fly through his music career without a doubt. His voice carries through a room like a tornado with a cause and if you ever have the chance to run him down and hear a show you will be left with no question of who he is, what he stands for, and a hum that will run through your soul like never before, finding yourself with an addiction to the sound wailing from his mic. Through tough times he has prevailed landing on the Roots Music Report Chart for 43 consecutive weeks, standing 35 weeks in the top 10 with his “Ashes From Embers” album. He co-wrote “Pass me that Bottle” which reached 11 on the Texas Music Chart. Also his song “Take Me Back Home” reached 33 on the same chart. He has been 1 on many request charts such as Radio Free Texas, and his song “Just Cause” can not be extinguished on The Outlaw 92.5 in San Antonio, TX with its fiery comeback in which listeners can’t get enough of. He is on is way to carving his path singing along side of many artist both old school and on the rise, such as Ryan Bingham, Stoney Larue, Billy Joe Shaver, The Great Divide, Wayne Mills, Jason Bolland, Hayes Carll, Charlie Robinson, Lee Brice, and Jamey Johnson. Thus the foundation is set for his musical voyage. Often being called the Steve Earle of his time; his outlaw tune is not your typical commercial jingle lingering from Nashville. Although he has lived most of his life in Texas, it began in California, moving from state to state with his family as a child eventually finding his way back to Texas time and time again. Raised in a military household; often rejecting too much discipline unfortunately landed him some trouble as a young teen. His stubbornness and independence has taken him to extensive songwriting capabilities today. His well traveled adventures crafted him into the man he is and it appears in his music continuously. He writes about what’s in the heart sometimes good, and other times what we don’t want to admit out loud. His lyrics explode with feelings to tender for most to vocalize. He projects a sense of determination others envy. With the view of “Drive On, forever push forward, do not reflect on moments lost or opportunities passed.” . “Langston’s lyrics wander from “Enough about me girl, how you been?” to “whiskey, weed, and cocaine” as he explains “Everything around me tastes like sin.” His sound is pure outlaw, channeling the revolution that Luckenbach begat” said by author Cody Oxley of the 11th Hour Magazine. And that’s who he is. Often referred to as the new bandit where ever he plants his guitar and bag, he can be found on the couch of many friends and family members trying to make his way through this musical lifestyle that he continues to press on and has been known to wear the soles off his boots. Working in the oil fields of south Texas gets lonely, and Langston decided to pick up a guitar during time off and nothing has been the same since. His music stands for the everyday working man, lonely hearts, and the whisky drinking part of everyone, that loves music. He has a heart of gold, determined to be heard. Better told by Cara Miller owner of Radio Free Texas "Josh Langston has a way of painting a picture with lyrics. Word crafting at it's finest coupled with his unique vocals...” His razor sharp edge sets him aside from anything your ears can tune into on the radio. With this it’s hard to place him into a distinct musical category. He has Americana sound with a Folk Rock/Country twist JOSH LANGSTON, live it and turn it UP!

This will be my second time to try and post here. I too was at the Float trip and have been following Josh Langston for a while now. He puts on great shows and has all along the way! As far as covers go, even the Main Headliner started their show with a Cover! As a matter of fact I have been to a large amount of shows and most all acts do a cover or two! I highly recommend you buy Josh Langston's "Liberty or Death' If you have not! And I appreciate that every artist should not have to end a show exactly the same! I think that why they are "artist"!

I was also at the same show, in fact I have been to many of Josh Langston's shows. I have been following the guy for a while. He puts on a hell of a show. I also saw many other artist at the RFT Float trip and noticed myself that they played covers also. Hell the Headliner started the set with a Cover! I personnally liked that he allowed the band to Show Off The skills for a Bit! If you have a chance and have not seen this guy lIVE you should.. and Im thankful that not every band must start and end the show the same!

I saw this guy at the Rowdy Float Trip this year and actually liked his sound , it was different. Then I noticed that he was playing mostly coversongs, In an hour set he played like 4 coversongs. but I looked past it until his last song after he introduced his band ( which by the way were very talented and tight) this weasel sets his guitar down, throws his pick into a crowd of about 15 people sitting in lawn chairs, and just walks off the stage, his band played another 2 minutes.... who dose this guy think he is? its trash like that that gives Texas Music a bad name. Christ I watched Pat Green at the Houston Rodeo in front of 60,000 people leave with his band not let them keep playing by themselves. I wish the best of luck to his band but I will never buy a josh langston CD.
