Album Of The Week

"Välskrivna låtar, och både välspelat och välsjunget."

- Tony Berg / Baretta Magazine -

"I ärlighetens namn vet jag inte mycket om amerikanen Joshua Singleton. Snabbt inser jag dock att det som serveras på skivan 'The Promised Land' är något jag kommer att minnas som något av det bästa från 2025. Så pass bra låter nämligen Joshua Singleton, som serverar en mix av country och pop, dessutom med en röst som är bland det bästa jag har hört på länge."

- Torbjörn Berlin / Berlin Calling -

"Joshua Singletons nya album är en mix av americana och rootsrock när det är som bäst i musiken."

- Micheles Kindh / Blaskan -

"Singer songwriter Joshua Singleton explores the americana genre with high value tunes that blend roots rock, blues, country, and soul into something that’s entirely his own."

- Kenneth Bremer / Blue Desert -

"This singer songwriter is currently based in Nashville, having spent his early years growing up in Asheville, North Carolina. He has been involved in the music industry from an early age and his songs are very much centred in the roots rock arena. Having released a self-titled debut back in 2009, he followed with an EP in 2011 and now, some 14 years later, comes a 3rd offering. There is an impressive quality across the songs included and the 12 tracks deliver a very enjoyable listening experience. Plenty of quality to enjoy on this very welcome return."

- Paul McGee / Lonesome Highway -

"This is Asheville, North Carolina’s Joshua Singleton’s 3rd album and the expressive singer songwriter continues to blend his americana, roots rock, blues, country and soul mix into something consistently unique. With a voice that navigates bare knuckle melodies with skill, Joshua applies his authoritative vocal to some highly melodic tunes."

- John Apice / Americana Highways -

"At the end of the day, this is a very credible addition to the genre Joshua Singleton's chosen to make his musical home."

- Mike Davies / Fatea Magazine -

"I think a little bit of music by Tom Petty and also sometimes by Bryan Adams, because the compositions, as well as the arrangements, and also the vocals, let me mentally wander there."

- Wolfgang Giese / Musik An Sich -

"On 'The Promised Land' we get to know Joshua Singleton as a singer songwriter who has dedicated himself to smooth roots pop. The arrangements are carefully balanced and pleasant to the ear."

- John Gjaltema / Alt Country NL -

"This album contains more than enough ammunition for other, less talented artists looking for a hit. Let them browse through this treasure trove full of fine songs."

- Joop van Rossem / Heaven Magazine -

"This is an album that feels both timeless and current, a work that invites repeated listening, and new layers and nuances each time . With 'The Promised Land', Joshua Singleton shows that he is a permanent voice within americana. The album is both a personal testimony as a musical journey through the landscapes of country and blues, and it fully lives up to its promise."

- Fred Pach / Muziekwereld -

"As a fan of artists such as Jason Isbell and Chris Stapleton you can play 'The Promised Land' without any worries, Joshua Singleton will not disappoint you. The additional advantage is that Joshua also has a very pleasant voice. At times it sounds a bit raw, some moments with some soul. But it's perfectly made for this kind of americana."

- William van Voorbergen / Orange Flag Music -

"Joshua Singelton's 'The Promised Land' is a release that grows with multiple spins. American rock from a talented musician."

- Jaks Schuit / Real Roots Café -

"It took over 14 years until americana singer songwriter Joshua Singleton from Asheville, North Carolina, was able to release his 2nd CD, 'The Promised Land', succeeding the EP 'King Of Hearts', released in 2011. But the high quality of the 12 songs on this record show that it was more than worthwhile to wait that long time for his new work. This can easily become compared to both Jason Isbell and Bryan Adams, but it should mainly be regarded with all credits to Joshua Singleton himself."

- Valére Sampermans / Rootstime -

"12 potential singles, a mix of medium tempo songs that cross americana, pop and rock with a radio friendly cut who could be lucky in some so called adult oriented programming rock stations, which still has an abundant audience in the US. In synthesis the musical formula of 'The Promised Land' is all here and Joshua Singleton proposes it without changing the recipe much, being careful to the smoothing of the guitars, to the hanging of the melodies, and of course the reference to tradition."

- Fabio Cerbone / Roots Highway -

"Joshua Singleton introduces himself with 12 consistent and well developed, natural and convincing songs, which reveal his high potential and equally strong vocal and performance quality."

- Branimir Lokner / Time Machine Music -
