Singer songwriter Josh Krajcik’s career began at 15 on the stages of bars in Ohio - forging a grunge-y, blues soul sound that would evolve into the Josh Krajcik Band. After putting out his first record at 18, Krajcik spent his 20s playing guitar on the road supporting artist friends on tour opening for Brandi Carlile, The Fray, and Corinne Bailey Rae, as well as releasing two more JKB albums (Ghosts and Atavistic).
His first major label release - Blindly Lonely Lovely (2013 Phonogenic/Sony - partially recorded at Abbey Road) – followed a stint on the first season of the X Factor, where he was runner up. A cowrite with Swedish DJ Avicii (Addicted to You) followed. Then in 2017, Krajcik returned to his roots with the self-released album Oblivion.
A life changing event in 2019 jettisoned Krajcik into a new body of work. Deeply personal with universal meaning – EPIPHANIAC explores concepts of death and life, space and time, alternate realities and the trauma and beauty of survival.
“Sonically I leaned into some of the sounds that I always loved as a kid. I really wanted to take those things I loved listening to in the backseat of the car in 1987 and then corrupt them and make them my own”
