    The third single from Josiah & The Greater Good this year, ‘Broken Man,’ is the follow up single to Akademia Music Award Winner ‘Real Mother Lover (Ft. Dylan Moore,) and ‘Gypsy.” Soulful, relaxed and as jazzy as ever.

    Surprise everyone!

    We could think of no better way to follow up the award winning single ‘Real Mother Lover (Ft. Dylan Moore)’ than to do a shock single release of Gypsy with Josiah & The Greater Good.

    Gypsy brings plenty of heart and soul to the ears, and will be a mainstay in gigs throughout the rest of the year, including HillFest 2016, which we are a proud sponsor of.

    Stick around and give a listen friends. Happy Friday!

    “Real Mother Lover (Ft. Dylan Moore,)” has now captured it’s first award as the Best Pop Rock/Reggae song of July 2016 from Akademia Music! This is such a huge accomplishment for Josiah & The Greater Good, as well as us here at SMRI, as it is our first ever award winning release!!!

    Not to tease, but we have some upcoming releases with Josiah….so get excited for more. We wished we could share more, but we’re a secretive bunch.

    In the meantime, we just simply wanted to share this wonderful news and thank Akademia for their press and vote of confidence.

    Here is what Akademia had to say about Josiah & The Greater Good’s “Real Mother Lover (Ft. Dylan Moore)”:

    ‘Real Mother Lover’ is radio-ready in the intricate fashion of a Sublime cut – its smart melodic contour and edgy vocalization perfectly serve the song’s feel-good aesthetic.

    This is a huge stepping stone for J & TGG and it wouldn’t be possible without the support of all their wonderful fans and the people who follow us as well.

     

    Thank you all so MUCH!!!

    Exciting news for our friends from Pickering!

    Since the debut album re-release of “Between Here and There,” people have been taking notice of the brilliant sound the Red Chevrons have to offer. Currently listing with over 100 monthly listeners in top cities such as London, Brussels, Stockholm, Paris, and Berlin; they have reason to be proud and celebrate!

    The Red Chevrons are the longest tenured SMRI artist, and have been wish us virtually since the very beginning. They offer a unique indie rock sound and continue to impress. For more, here is their bio below:

     

    Red Chevrons are a four piece indie/rock band from Pickering (North Yorkshire). Since forming in late 2007, the band have played in venues up and down the UK such as Liverpool, London, Manchester, Hull, Wakefield, Scarborough, Leeds and countless gigs in their local city of York supporting established acts such as Cast, Ash, Steve Cradock( OCS and Paul Weller), Jon Windle(little man tate)Twisted Wheel and Little Comets to name a few. Red Chevrons have done numerous recording sessions and have received airplay from several radio stations including the BBC introducing shows where they have played live sessions. So there you have it; with influences from bands and artists spanning the last 50 years. Red Chevrons write songs about everyday situations and emotions from elation to desperation and everything in-between summed up in a wall of sound with catchy guitar hooks and massive sing-along choruses.

    The debut single for Josiah & The Greater Good is now here! “Real Mother Lover” is the first commercially released effort since Josiah released the Scoundrel EP in 2014 under his own name. So for all his fans in Knoxville, this has been a long-awaited moment, and for the world, we hope to convert you ;).

     

    For more information, Knoxville Music Warehouse has done a wonderful job summing up the release:

    “Real Mother Lover” is a chill party track, and the jazzy sax and tasteful background vocals from Tara Gideon and Ci Ci Teasley really set things off. The rapping third verse is a nice buildup and the sax solo at the end is the exclamation point.

    It’s been a big month for Josiah & The Greater Good. They have new music coming out, they just played the Market Square Stage at The Dogwood Arts Festival, and they recently announced being added to the Bonnaroo lineup. Oh yeah, and they’re opening for Kansas at the newly minted Back Porch on the Creek at the end of this month!

    Josiah enlisted a whole squad of talented musicians for this song like Danny Brown on keys, Brandon Bowman on sax, and Frank Sheadrick Jr. on bass. It also features rapper Dylan Moore lending his talents in the third verse. You can find more info on Dylan, also a Knoxville native, on his website.

     

    Stream the single for free here:

     

    Straight from Josiah himself:

    Josiah & The Greater Good are booked for festivals such as Bonnaroo 2016, Dogwood Arts Festival in TN, HillFest in Hillsville, VA during Labor Day Weekend, and are booked to open for Internationally known band Kansas. Josiah & The Greater Good has had press in Ditto Music’s online blog, Knoxville News Sentinel, Blank Newspaper, Our City Radio, and has been scoring radio play on WUTK 90.3, and i105.3, and on 106.1 The River, multiple performances on the world famous, 89.9 WDVX Blueplate Special, and TV interviews on Fox 43 in Knoxville, TN. Along with large radio play/exposure in Ohio, and Georgia, and winning the 2016 Knoxville City Finals for The Road To Roo & coming second runner up in the State Finals, Josiah & The Greater Good are believers in hard work paying off.

     

    Stay Tuned for more friends!
