Press Excerpts

“Music is a sheltering rock for a variety of Joshua’s inner storms and his minimal production style reflects the intensity that he encounters in the dark. If you’re a fan of artists such as Rhye, Blood Orange, Moses Sumney and The Internet, then we recommend to add Joshua Worden to your playlists.”

— Tattoo.com

“Joshua Worden's eclectic, atmospheric sound is reminiscent of Sufjan Stevens’ electro-minded The Age of Adz, incorporating smooth vocals with a reverbed percussive presence and electronic flourishes.”

— Obscure Sound

“The music is light in the sense that without the ethereal synth pads and reverbed drums, the frequency-modulated noise would colour these songs dark. Worden’s musical influences are plain to hear but he’s drawing upon some strong ones – there are pads suggesting Vangelis here, a dose of Washed Out’s throb there and the bold lead lines of Tangerine Dream.”

— Addicted

“Has the ability to creep up on you, but in the best way ever.”

— Indie Shuffle

“Marrow is an intimate, impossibly soulful and harmonic ballad that will bounce around your ears with slow and purposeful fury.”

— No Fillers

“The unabashedly vulnerable lyrics, subtle instrumentation and interweaving of voices slowly but surely lure you in, making for a disarming listen.”

— Indies and the Underground

“There is something about a multi-instrumentalist and producer who writes and sings their own songs that screams impressive.”

— Speaker Creatures

“Worden’s lyrical capabilities are among the strongest I’ve seen in a long time, being able to write from a personal place yet still leave it open for interpretation is a tricky task, and on Always This he did it flawlessly.”

— WORDKRAPHT

“Soulful and ethereal, Joshua Worden's music is polished with touches of quiet storm elements.”

— Examiner

“It only takes 20 seconds of Always This to know that you’re in for a treat.”

— Under the Gun

“Joshua Worden delivers an air of road worn smoothness to an otherwise new sound.”

— Copasetix
