Saw The Bygones three weeks ago in Cologne at a small, intimate venue. A delightfull evening for sure; just their voices and guitars. I had planned to buy their album on CD as I already have it digital on Bandcamp, but they were already sold out on the previous European gigs. It is not just that both are fine musicians. They obviously enjoy being on stage together and blend seamlessly, especially when their vocals harmonize. What a treat! Thanks for pointing me towards the recent collab with Carson; I had somehow missed that. Good to hear the are still working together, as The Other Favourites are a fine duo in their own right. Saw them live together two years ago together with Reina del Cid and spent an evening filled with glorious handmade music. Cheers!
The Bygones are playing my town in three weeks - can't wait! The last time Josh came through he sold out before I pulled the trigger - didn't hesitate this time.
Been following Josh for years. He's a truly great musician and I hugely enjoyed his cover versions which were often better than the originals as well as his original music with the Other Favorites. But I cannot relate at all to the music he's doing with Alison Young as the Bygones duo. Alison has a beautiful voice, but her music is so, well, bygone, bathing in nostalgia. I'm glad for Josh to enjoy the commercial success the Bygones seem to have, but I hope it doesn't keep him from pursuing other musical paths.
Thanks so much for that honest assessment! It certainly is a bit of a departure for Josh, but he certainly has incredible musical chemistry with Allison. They're on tour now, so we'll see what 2025 brings for him!
@kathygerulaitis I find it very strange that he travels around the world with that woman who sings with him. I see so much desire for him in her eyes, and I never see his wife with him.
@@Catari777 when Josh introduced "Whatever that is" in Cologne, He said something like "I wrote this song for my wife Kelly, who apart from being our manager, photographer and sometimes van driver is the greatest person in the world." Does not sound like divorce to me.
Josh is just so amazing. He just doesn't stop. One awesome thing after another. An incredible musician.
100% agreed!
I've been following Josh for almost 8 years now! I have a signed copy of their Vinyl release hanging on my wall!
Yes!
So glad you are championing this incredibly talented and refreshing musician! Thank you! I can't wait to see The Bygones here in a month!!
Please come back and share your thoughts on the show. Have a great time!

Great review of The Bygones! Thanks, Ralf!
Just an amazing artist

Before you pulled the trigger? Couldn't you use any other phrase than that one? Were you planning on shooting him at the concert? It's not 1970!
Great decision! Please come back and let us know how it was.
Amazing guitarist

Has Josh divorced his wife?
That's exactly what I want to know...and why i watched this video!
@kathygerulaitis I find it very strange that he travels around the world with that woman who sings with him. I see so much desire for him in her eyes, and I never see his wife with him.
@@Catari777 his wife is his manager and runs the business end of things
@@JackFlaps : and takes most of his videos, including those with Allison Young.
