Josh Shipton

After over 30 years of performing, composing, conducting and curating; Sydney-based multi-instrumentalist Josh Shipton still considers himself an emerging artist who’s just hitting his stride. Active in Sydney’s singer songwriting and experimental communities, he has curated events such as TRIANGLE’s Sideshow Alley, The Sideshow Of Soloists, EVIL - Experimental Vs Improvised Live, The Sydney Cringe Festival and Keybroads; and performed in many multiple ensembles including: Cell Divide, Box Freezer Romance, Kinderschmerzen, TRIANGLE, Marquis De Sound, Meat Safe and The Murder Of Crow to name a few and is currently performing with The Valentitanic Trio, Tempi Quartet, Josh Shipton and the Blue Eyed Ravens, and The Josh Shipton Orchestra.

Fiercely independent, extraordinarily eccentric, untamed and eclectic; JoSh would have been hanged if he was born in the 19th century
