The Joshua Project

The Joshua Project first began as a side project for Joshua Lowry while in between bands. Joshua eventually created a Myspace page for the project to introduce others to the music and receive feedback. As a result of this, he began to draw a small following with interest in an album or a show. Thriving on this and other feedback, He continued to write more music on the side, which served as an outlet to express other musical interests, while maintaining a part of the Houston metal scene. Once he enough songs were written to compose an album, Joshua reached out to Mike BBQ in 2008 to record his debut album, "428." Shortly after its release however, Joshua stepped away from the music scene so he could focus on his education and professional career outside of music. After a 7 year hiatus however, while in pursuit of his Master's degree, Joshua once began to hear the music. As a result, in 2015 he began writing music once again for his sophomore effort, tentatively entitled "WWIII." This new album focuses on the research he conducted in graduate school, as well as other issues of social justice. Joshua hopes to use his music and high energy, theatrical, and (possibly) controversial performances to draw attention to these important issues. The album was initially scheduled for a mid-late 2016 release with a subsequent tour to follow, however it may be pushed back to an early 2017 release date. TJP is an industrial performance art musical experience, with emphasis on the importance of individuality, diversity, collectivity, and social justice.
