Music in my life

    


           my life with music.


        Hello one and all.  I am Joshua Green, but most my friends call me Josh.  I was raised in Pacolet my whole life.  I've been in music since sixth grade band class at Jonesville Elementary Middle School, having been a Euphonium player since then.  I fully started becoming a musician at Union County High School, being a member of the marching band from 2015-2019.  After graduating high school,  I started my first two years of college at USC Union.  After which I transferred to Limestone University with the intent of going into Music Ed.  At the beginning of my junior year at limestone, I decided to drop Education, and get a degree in music.  After the end of my junior year, I ended up transferring here to Converse after Limestone closed.  Although I am getting a B.A. in music, I enjoy doing vocal impressions of different movie and TV characters, and hope to try to get into voice acting for my career.


        my favorite music

    There is no one favorite music I enjoy listening to, so I will instead give some of my favorites across the different genre's of  music I enjoy.



    There is no favorite song from Poor Man's Poison, because I really enjoy all of there music.  Poor Man's Poison is a country band that reminds if the pre Garth Brooks era of country music still made music this year.  I don't like modern country music, but this band and many like this band give me hope for my all time favorite Genre.

 
    Shinedown is who I would say is my favorite rock band.  I wasn't really into rock until around my 10th grade.  This song one that i would randomly turn on for no particular reason.  It gives me the headspace for me to come up with stories.



Electric swing is a recent genre that I have been enjoying right now, blending 1920's aesthetic with a modern spin.



    I have never been a fan of K-pop, but this movie got me to change my mind about the genre.  although I already wanted to learn to speak Korean, this movie got me to start learning through duolingo.

        Walk to bat song



    My walk to bat song would most definitely be Free Bird, the guitar solo more specifically.  this song has the drive and energy that I believe works well when walking to the bat at the beginning of the game.  This song also has a strong connection with southern culture.

    Song I do not like

    

    I have never been a fan of Beyonce's music for many reasons.  I believe that this song is an insult to the genre that this was suppose to be.  Beyonce took every thing that I do not like about modern country music, combined it all, and amplified it by 10x.  There is just no way I can see how people can connect with this song.

  2. Hey Joshua! Great blog! I have heard that the euphonium is a very difficult instrument to play, but the fact that you have been able to pick it up and learn about it for years is very noble of you! I also kind of agree with your opinion about Beyonce's Texas music. I like Beyonce, but this piece was absolutely NOT my cup of tea.

  3. I was not expecting to see so many songs I like mentioned in this blog! I love Poor Man's Poison and Caravan Palace! I never would have placed you as the type to enjoy the K-Pop Demon Hunters soundtrack, but I honestly can't blame you. I've caught myself listening to quite a few of their songs myself.
