Josh Gillespie is an Indianapolis based solo artist. Raised in a musical family, he was influenced by the sounds of symphonies, classic and modern rock and pop during his childhood. His style reflects that of us his upbringing, but with his own flair and personality.
His debut album, Make Something Happen Here, combines his love of alternative staples like R.E.M. and the Foo Fighters and blends that with introspective singer-songwriter type lyrics.
"Maybe It's Time" was Josh's debut single and combines the elements of classic and modern rock into a track that keeps the listener engaged from the very beginning. He has called Maybe Its Time the central theme of his album.
He followed that up with "Slave to the Party". This song, based in part on personal experience, blends punk vibes with hard straight ahead rock music.
Make Something Happen Here is available on this website as well as streaming on all platforms such as Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music and YouTube.
Let's Build a Community
I'm building a community by starting one over on Discord called "The Nomad Collective" and I'm inviting you to join me! If you follow me for my music or for my podcasts such as The Political Nomad or Voices of Indy you’ll note that I talk about how we're all on a journey together, be that a musical, political or even spiritual. This community is meant to cover those topics and so much more.
