“All grit and no quit.” These are the deeply rooted words that Josh Ward lives by to an absolute fault. An anchored mindset that has led this country music artist from a drifter’s adolescence to the jeopardous game of the rodeo circuit to the punishing toil of the Texas oil fields, and into the fickle arms of the music business.
Josh Ward’s debut album, Promises, released in 2011, marked the beginning of his journey in the country music scene. Over the years, he has released several albums, including Holding Me Together and More Than I Deserve, each showcasing his distinctive sound and lyrical storytelling. Josh was added to the Live at Billy Bob’s Texas family with the release of his live album from the world’s largest honky-tonk in 2019.
The highly anticipated new album, Same Ol’ Cowboy, Different Rodeo, marks a new chapter for Josh. After a year of highs and lows and a few unexpected turns, Josh is ready to look forward. Josh said, “I’m not a boastful guy, but this new record is something special. I am really proud of this one!”
The album features a mix of heartfelt ballads and boots on the dance floor tunes, each crafted with his distinctive baritone voice and the classic country music that his fans love. The title itself hints at a subtle balance of staying true to one’s roots while embracing what lies ahead.
The title track, “Same Ol’ Cowboy, Different Rodeo,” written by Jake Worthington and Wyatt McCubbin has always been a favorite for Josh. He said, “I feel honored to have these guys behind me on this record.” The track resonated with Josh as a musician and with a history of life on the rodeo circuit. It strikes a chord within of true raw emotion whether you are a performer or a competitor.
Same Ol’ Cowboy, Different Rodeo was recorded at Rosewood Studios and co-produced by Josh Ward and Drew Hall. The album features 12 meaningful tracks each stamped with the Josh Ward brand. The album will be available for pre-order September 2024 with the full release available in early 2025.
