Biography
Ohio native Josh Melton, began his musical journey at a young age when he would listen to the likes of Elvis Presley and Frank Sinatra growing up with his dad. After high school Josh attended nursing school for a couple years before he made his move to Music City.
While working as a nurse’s assistant in Nashville, his first performing stages looked a little different than most. Melton would bring his guitar to work and play at the residents request. Through their encouragement and generosity, Josh was gifted an SUV from a patient while on their deathbed. However, the car came with one condition – he would use it to travel to real stages and play for more than just a retirement home audience.
