It is amazing what music can do in the respect of changing your mood, how you think or maybe even certain aspects of your life. Joshua Ketchmark has out done himself on his latest release, “The Bittersweet” and has the ability to do all the above.
The CD is pop music with an edge. The edge being that it has heart and you can feel it from the very depths of your soul. This music speaks the language of universal appeal and evokes passion on so many levels. It gets your attention right away and now that you are engaged his vocals kick in and leaves you spinning. He has a smooth sophistication that is belted with such conviction it can make a believer out of anyone.
This is the first release of 3 EP’s. His goal is to release 12 songs for 2012. I would say this is a very fine start. I do not mean to get ahead of myself but I can’t wait to hear what else is in store. He is a powerhouse house with the full package.
If you are looking to be entertained, then look no further. Joshua Ketchmark is a serious contender and is taking this music scene and making it his own. “The Bittersweet” is hooky and confidently executed. You only have to listen to it once and the songs will live in your head long after the player has stopped.
