Singer songwriter Josh Burch is a native of North Carolina.  In addition to being a furniture maker, and luthier, Burch has been involved with music for quite some time.
        Constantly writing, recording, and playing music, he has released two full-length solo albums, Not a Word (2005) and Frownin’ Clown (2007). Both albums are self-recorded and self-produced, mixed by Brian Paulson, and mastered by Studio B.  On these "folk-rock/Americana/laid-back collections" Burch features his ability to play a variety of instruments including guitar, slide guitar, mandolin, harmonica, bass, keyboards, and pedal steel.  The albums also showcase Burch’s song writing talents and knack for putting together appealing arrangements.
        Throughout the years Burch has fronted the bands Bullfight, Jellomold, Naked Ed and The Mully Foggers.  He has also accompanied acts like Reverend Love, Crossroad's Rhythm & Blues Band, and 74th Kind.  In the late 1990’s Burch operated a small studio known as kaleidoscope records.  There he recorded and produced demos and LPs for many local and regional talents.
        Burch combines his lifetime appreciation of musical instruments with fine woodworking skills building handcrafted guitars.  As with his music, Josh Burch’s one-of-a-kind guitars derive from original ideas. These fundamental works of art possess a genuine combination of sound, look, and feel you will find in no other instrument. 
Occasionally Burch focuses his energy creating other forms of art  mixing wood and paint.  These textured artworks are found under the name BJ Brown
