    Josh Pearson

    In 2001 a band emerged from Denton, Texas with one of the most awe-inspiring debuts in recent memory. The band was LIFT TO EXPERIENCE and their record was entitled THE TEXAS-JERUSALEM CROSSROADS… a concept album about the end of the world where Texas is the Promised Land… and a record so epic and evangelical it almost made even the staunchest non-believers think there might really be a higher power.

    The band’s leader was the charismatic and enigmatic JOSH T PEARSON, son of a southern Preacher man who grew up listening to endless sermons of fire and brimstone. Listening to his music was akin to hearing Jeff Buckley fronting My Bloody Valentine, Godspeed! or Slint… a beautiful, intoxicating experience for sure.

    Lift To Experience spent the following year on tour, stunning audiences with their incendiary live shows, looking set to cross over to a huge audience… and then… nothing. The promised second album never arrived and Josh appeared at times to be retreating from the world, a soul in crisis, moving to a hut in a remote part of Texas to wrestle with his demons. When he was occasionally sighted in Denton or Austin he seemed to many to be an outlaw, belonging to an earlier time…

    Over the years, the Lift To Experience legend has continued to grow, fuelled by the absence of a follow-up, the elusive behaviour of their leader, and the fact that bands such as HOPE OF THE STATES, EXPLOSIONS IN THE SKY and THE DUKE SPIRIT have cited them as such a massive, essential influence on their music.

    Now Josh is finally emerging from the wilderness… shaking off his demons… and returning to the UK armed with a collection of astonishing new acoustic material to play to his fans, which should hopefully (all being well!) become his debut solo album next year. The shows on the tour are co-headliners, Josh being joined by either BIKINI ATOLL or the ARCHIE BRONSON OUTFIT (or both). Dates below…

    “Vast and majestic… the most spectacularly handsome guitar-led rock music since the invention of the plectrum”.
