Not everyone pauses a ten-year teaching career to sing songs around the country, but that’s exactly what singer-songwriter, occasional digestive piano player and accidental Come Dine With Me co-star is doing. After a 12-year journey to re-record the album that started it all off in a student,bedroom, Joshua Burnell is sharing those songs and his story on tour. His songs have been described as “extravagantly inventive” (The Guardian), like “vignettes that look to other stories, myths and fairytales” (Financial Times) and fit somewhere between alt-folk and retro-pop.

Expect expressive piano, lush strings and immersive lyrics. Accompanied by his band, Joshua invites you to join him on his Misty Mountain Tour, named as a loving nod to the Tolkien-influenced songs on his new album, Lend An Ear [Revisited]. Having toured internationally and headlined festivals, Joshua is unearthing how these songs led him down the path he is on and how those songs can serve others. The music is eclectic and constantly keeps you guessing but is consistently grounded in emotive storytelling and genuine human connection. Joshua loves what he does and it is infectious; he left the stage with his band at Fairport’s Cropredy Convention to a standing ovation, received the thumbs up from Mark Radcliffe on BBC Radio 2, landed on RnR’s ‘Best Albums of The Year’ and has sold out headline concerts both in his home town, York and London; “definitely a young artist worth watching.” (Morning Star).
