Since winning Season 6 of NBC’s The Voice, Josh Kaufman has kept busy making music in a variety of different settings. Highlights include appearing as a guest vocalist with The Roots on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon, making his Broadway debut as the lead in the Tony Award-winning revival of Stephen Schwartz’s Pippin, headlining the Indy Jazz Fest, hosting Yuletide Celebration with Maestro Jack Everly and the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra, and releasing a six song EP and a full album (co-written and produced by LA-based singer/songwriter/producer, Bleu), as well as several self-produced singles. 

Naming soul legends like Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye and introspective singer/songwriters like Jeff Buckley and Paul Simon among his favorite artists, Kaufman says one of his main goals is to make music infused with a powerful intimacy. “I’m a pretty reserved and introverted person by nature, and singing has always been a way to express the things that I might not express otherwise,” Kaufman notes. “At its best music creates this deep emotional connection that transcends explanation,” he continues, “and that, I think, is what keeps me making music.”

Aside from writing, recording, and performing his own music, Kaufman is involved in a number of other pursuits. He has worked extensively as a producer for other independent artists. He devotes some of his time to teaching music, offering one on one instruction and workshops. He writes and speaks on a variety of topics—philosophy, art, religion, ethics, etc. And he and his wife, Jenny run Raven & Crow Farm, a small flower farm just north of Indianapolis. Josh, Jenny, and their five kids live in the north suburbs of Indianapolis, IN.
