Josh Harty at Live From the Divide on Thursday, July 17th at 8pm.

Touring across continents, Josh Harty’s unique blend of American music has become a must-hear for those who keep the tradition of country, blues and folk close to their hearts. Born and raised on the plains of North Dakota, his father, both a preacher & the Police Chief of their small town, was also Harty’s music mentor. Beginning at the age of 5 Josh, along side his dad, was a staple at town festivals, church events and community centers across the upper Midwest.

More than just moving along, he’s spending plenty of time in the communities along the way, from Brooklyn to Haarlem, from London to Portland. Josh is always looking for that balance between the rolling road and the people who inspire him, trading stories around kitchen tables and theatre stages. Harty’s live shows prove that good story telling combined with journeyman musicianship is as American as music gets.
