RELATED ARTISTS
One of the great things about being a Josh fan is the chance to be exposed to great new artists. The Grobanites have come to know some wonderful musicians through opening acts on tour, guest performances on Josh's recordings, and performances at clubs alongside members of the GroBand. Some are veterans, some are up-and-coming new artists, but they're all extremely talented. Have a listen, maybe try something new...The Opening Acts
