Joshua Burnside is an experimental folk songwriter, singer and producer. He takes influence from alternative electronica and Irish traditional song heritages, chopping and blending them with a mixture of found sounds, world music and unorthodox production methods. His music lives against the grain, in both style and spirit.

Raised in the north of Ireland between the lush drumlins and hills of Strangford Lough, and the narrow entries and alleyways of East Belfast, Joshua’s music has defined and defied the post-conflict society of his home. Taking in the economics of existence, family, trauma and renewal, while set against a backdrop of tense electronica and lush Irish folk and traditional songwriting.
Joshua’s critically acclaimed “Teeth of Time” (2005) was a BBC6 Music Album of the Year, nominated for multiple awards including 2025 Choice RTE Irish Album of the Year, 2025 Folk Album of the Year, RTE 1 Folk Awards and the NI Music Prize for Best Album (where he was also nominated for Single of the Year and Live Act of the Year), and received glowing support from the likes of MOJO, Uncut, Songlines, Irish Times, KLOF Mag and, The Thin Air, Nialler 9, Hot Press, BBC Alba, BBC Radio 2 & BBC 6Music
His new album, "It’s Not Going to be Okay", was released in March 2026 via Nettwerk.
