Josh Paterson - Guitar

Josh Paterson is a guitarist from Longmont, Colorado that began playing the guitar at the age of 8 after being inspired by his Mother’s record collection featuring the likes of Steely Dan, Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin. Hearing so many great guitar players inspired him to keep practicing and developing his technique. He continued studying various styles of music throughout middle school and high school. He played with a number of different bands that ranged in styles from classic rock, to punk, alternative and progressive rock.

In his late teens, Josh heard the band, “Return To Forever” and he began a new focus on studying the many faces of jazz/fusion and began immersing himself in the works of guitar virtuosos like Al Di Meola, Eric Johnson, John McLaughlin and Scott Henderson. Most recently, Josh has played in a local jazz trio covering a range of great standards from Charlie Parker, John Coltrane and Miles Davis.

He was also a key member in the house band that hosted the blues jams in Lyons Colorado as well as playing in several local blues and jazz/rock bands.
