Josh + Bex are a folk duo rooted in British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley, crafting songs that live where tenderness meets truth. Their seamlessly intertwined harmonies carry a sound that feels both time-worn and immediate—raw, intentional, and deeply human. Moving intuitively between hope and heartbreak, their music explores the quiet beauty and complexity of being fully alive.
Onstage, the duo balance warmth and introspection with a magnetic ease. Josh draws listeners in with an expansive, genre-curious approach to songwriting, while Bex brings a thoughtful, inward gaze that grounds each song. Together, they create dynamic performances shaped by hushed, breath-holding moments and carefully built surges of emotion—equal parts reverent and celebratory.
Recognized as one of Kelowna Now’s Top 3 Local Bands/Musicians every year since 2018, Josh + Bex have become a familiar and beloved presence across the Okanagan and beyond. Since 2019, they’ve released four albums and toured extensively across Canada, performing in intimate house concerts, soft-seated theatres, and major folk festivals. Highlights include Salmon Arm Roots & Blues Festival, Fireside Festival, Jasper Folk Festival, Peace Valley Folk Festival, Ryga Arts Festival, Nest Fest, and Napatak Ramble. They’ve also had the honour of opening for Jon and Roy and Joel Plaskett.
Josh + Bex return to the Fireside Festival stage on February 1, 2026.
Josh + Bex Discography:
Josh + Bex released their debut self-titled EP in 2019—their most widely known and streamed songs.
Everything is Everything was Josh + Bex sophomore record; a full-length dream folk production, released in 2022. Whimsical and illuminating, these songs bridge the audience from the physical to the metaphysical world.
In the spring of 2024, they released a 5-song EP, Stoned in Paradise. The pair took this dystopic and introspective collection of songs on the road with Canadian tours throughout in BC, AB and SK and NS.
Look for their 4th album, Folk Covers Vol. 1 on all platforms—a cleverly reimagined folk-forward collection of classic favourites.
