The dirt city, blue collar emcee steady on the grind. This underground shit stomper has been spitting rhymes for over a decade, staying true to form and never selling out. Bearing his soul on every track this true school emcee keeps it personal with every rhyme. In his words: "If you want to get to know me - listen to my music man. Its all there, the good, the bad and the fucked up, that's who I am. I couldn't be someone else even if I tried."

RELEASES

In 2008 Josh Furey released his first album, Archaeology. A few people listened to the record. It was pretty uneventful. Two years later, Archaeology would be featured on 3 different 2010 Album of the Year lists, being called "nearly perfect" in reviews. In the meantime, Josh remained unphased and kept working hard on what is yet to come.

He's like a pirate with good hygiene, or a pimp who's afraid to talk to girls. Odds are he is probably scrounging through the classified adds looking for deals on second hand instruments, or tinkering in his underground laboratory fashioning unusual percussion instruments out of reclaimed air compressor parts. Bottom line, the dude just likes to make music, and is in constant search of delicious sandwiches.
