Josh Fudge

Fudge fashions a kaleidoscopic take on pop by conjuring modern vibrancy through analog proficiency. The Oklahoma-born singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer paints from a broad palette of alternative, indie, and pop, envisioning a world of his own in the process. He started playing piano at the age of four, spending hours on the instrument daily. At 9 years old, he noticed a flier in a local arts district. The words, “Street Performers Welcome,” beckoned him. Much to his mother’s chagrin, her middle schooler set up shop with a tiny keyboard and amp and busked, taking home $200 in cash. Drawing inspiration from everyone from Billy Joel to Mac Demarco, he bought a guitar, a bass, a drum set, and amassed an arsenal of analog synths. Sharpening his songwriting, he locked into an “aggressive release strategy” throughout 2020. He reached new heights with 2021’s “FEEL LIKE.” It debuted on Spotify’s coveted New Music Friday playlist and generated more than 3 million Spotify streams. After amassing 10 million-plus streams independently and receiving support from Spotify’s New Music Friday, Rolling Stone, Glide Magazine, and more, he invites everyone into this space on a series of singles and more music to come.
