Folge #044: Teachers are Artists! Interview mit Singer/Songwriter Josh Savage

With no management, publishing or record support to speak of,
singer/songwriter Josh


Savage has blazed a bright trail through the music industry,
which should serve as a


beacon to any musician looking to make a name for themselves in
the unrecognisable


21st Century landscape. "The most promising new young artist to
emerge in Winchester


in years" has built a loyal fanbase one living room at a time,
and his sprawling career has


seen him supporting acts as diverse as Razorlight, Rizzle Kicks,
Reverend and the


Makers, Roll Deep, and even some acts with names that don’t begin
with ‘R’ such as


Benjamin Francis Leftwich, John Hiatt, Catfish & The
Bottlemen & Ward Thomas.


There is a film about Josh Savage. In 2015, Josh played 79 shows
in 5 months with


Sofar Sounds and in people's homes across America and Europe
(including the famous


SXSW festival). ‘The Living Room Tour’ documentary can be
streamed here
