On Friday, June 17th from 7 to 10 PM, Midwest folk musician Joshua Powell will be performing a solo concert at Project Space 1785 (1785 Old Dixie Hwy, Vero Beach, Florida, 32960). The event will include not only Joshua’s intricate and engaging musicianship, but also an in-depth interview moderated by PS1785 co-founder Jared Thomas. The two will discuss such topics as Joshua’s musical inspirations, what it’s like to be a full-time touring musician, grass-roots marketing, how growing up in Vero Beach helped to shape his artistic tastes, the pros and cons of isolation, the kindness of strangers, socio-political norms and the benefits of challenging them, Christianity, literature, drone warfare, pacifism, and more. Audience questions will be fielded as well.
