The Joshua Band

The Joshua Band Classic Rock Soul. Gospel Heart. Emerging from Atlanta in 2024, The Joshua Band delivers a fresh take on rock ‘n’ roll—blending the grit of classic rock with the soul of gospel. What began as a collaboration between veteran songwriter/guitarist Mathew Mossburg and acclaimed producer/musician Jason Hoard has evolved into a powerhouse five-piece drawing national attention and over 80,000 monthly Spotify listeners. Known for their anthemic guitar riffs, soul-stirring lyrics, and dynamic live energy, The Joshua Band channels the spirit of artists like Tom Petty, U2, and Needtobreathe. Their sound is raw yet refined—rooted in themes of hope, redemption, and spiritual awakening. Sharing lead vocals, Leah Johnston and Jason Hoard bring both power and vulnerability to the front line, supported by Jason Cunningham (bass, vocals) and Jeff Vomero (drums, percussion). Together, they forge a chemistry that’s as magnetic on stage as it is in the studio. With new music and live performances slated throughout 2025, The Joshua Band is on a mission to bring a message with muscle—rock that speaks to the spirit and hits hard.
