An affable and thought-provoking Canadian singer/songwriter in the vein of folk-pop mainstays like the Lumineers and Mumford & Sons, Joshua Hyslop specializes in an atmospheric, soul-searching blend of brooding chamber pop and bucolic indie folk. Citing influences like Iron & WIne, Ryan Adams, Wilco, and Bon Iver, and hailing from Abbotsford, British Columbia, Hyslop issued his debut EP Cold Wind in 2011 via Nettwerk Records. Where the Mountain Meets the Valley, his critically acclaimed first studio long player, arrived the following year, with the next two years devoted to life on the road. In 2015, Hyslop released a second EP, Living & Dying, as well as his sophomore full-length, In Deepest Blue. ~ James Christopher Monger
