Joshua Ketchmark frees his audienceJoshua Ketchmark hits the mark with the public by making his songs personal. The deep connection he shares with his audience is intimate and respected. He feels a natural connection with his listeners and appreciates their input at all stages of a song's production. When the stage lights come on, his natural instincts kick in and attract passers-by. He knows when to flip the internal music switch without planning the live show. Ketchmark is gearing up to release an EP with a whole new appeal. All of the same universal themes will appear on the album, but none of the songs were subjects he intended to write about. “The new material goes in a different direction. I've always considered myself to have that kind of pop thing, but I still have my darker emotions. The EP leans more towards the darker side than the lighter side,” notes Joshua. The track titled “Count Your Blessings” plays out personally in an interesting way according to the musician. “The EP's approach is a little different; we’ll see how it fits in the long term,” says Ketchmark. He particularly enjoys it when other people can hear a demo and relate the piece to their personal experiences without revealing its original purpose. The EP will be available on everything from iTunes to Amazon, as List of Regrets is also available on those sites. Southern rock is in his nature. A friend will probably work with Ketchmark to team up to do a half dozen dates in Northern California and maybe even as far as Oregon. Joshua and one of his fellow Nashvillians also discussed an acoustic set that would allow them to pile into his friend's van and simply play stripped-down versions of his so...... middle of paper.. ....side shot among its listeners are “Everything”. Joshua says: “We shot the video for 'Everything' at the Roxy and a lot of people loved the verses and the chorus. Everyone seems to find their own little thing in the record, which I think is pretty cool. » List of Regrets was not written to be a record. The record reflects originality while his live performance demonstrates his talent as a musician capable of playing in any context. He finds that going back to the basics of a record or switching to acoustic allows him to let the music guide him through the twists and turns of his own journey. Music City continues to be a haven for singer-songwriters, and Ketchmark expects no less: his connection to Nashville always takes him back to basics. Accessible acoustic sets allow him to estimate what the full version will eventually lead people to think, which is a good formula for songwriting success..
