Josh Smith was born October 7, 1979 In Middletown, Connecticut. Before he was 1, his family relocated to Florida, eventually settling In Pembroke Pines, a suburb of Fort Lauderdale. At age 3, he received his first guitar and at 6, he started taking guitar lessons. After releasing 4 solo albums from the ages of 14-21 and touring Nationally to support them, Josh moved to Los Angeles in 2002. Within a year of moving to L.A., he was retained by Virgin Recording artist Ricky Fante. He played Nationally and Internationally with Ricky for the next two years.


In May 2006, Josh recorded his fifth CD, “Deep Roots”. A more traditional blues CD, his music
was once again well received by Blueswax and Blues Revue Magazine. In January 2007, Josh was hired by 2006 American Idol winner Taylor Hicks to be his lead guitarist.


In July 2008, Josh was hired by Raphael Saadiq. Since that time, Josh has played such high profile
gigs with Raphael as backing Mick Jagger at The Grammy Awards In 2011 and The Kennedy Center Honors in December 2011. Josh continues to tour Nationally and Internationally with Raphael. Josh released his 6th studio CD, “Inception,” in 2009. This was an all-instrumental CD with a
variety of genres that was once again well received by the public and critics alike.


In 2010, Josh was signed to Crosscut Records, a label based out of Germany. Crosscut re-released
Josh’s CD, “Deep Roots,” as “I’m Gonna Be Ready.” In October 2012, Josh’s CD, “Don’t Give
Up On Me,” Was Released In Germany.


In 2015 Josh released his 8th album “Over Your Head” a more rocking affair featuring guests
Joe Bonamassa, Charlie Musselwhite and Kirk Fletcher. Josh continues to live in the Los Angeles area with his Wife and two children.



Quinten Hope has wowed audiences across the nation, from the historical Bitter End Club in NYC to the famous Granada Theater in Dallas.


Quinten studied at the legendary University of North Texas School of Music, which led to his first CD (Aspects of the Soul). While at the School of Music, Quinten performed with the famous UNT Lab Band and wrote compositions that are still performed today. It was Quinten's second DC (Start of a New Day) that led to a friendship with Rock-N-Roll Hall-of-Famer and Grammy winner Will Lee along with Dan Wojciechowski and Bradley Knight. All three heavy hitters returned to record Quinten's critically acclaimed third CD (Reunion), which is his most personal to date.
