Josh was named top "rising star" in the 2003 Down Beat Critics' poll and is well known for his trombone work with MMW, Soulive, Steve Coleman, Me'shell, Mike Gordon, Dave Douglas, the Groove Collective, many others.
Roseman has appeared on over fifty albums as a sideman and NIGHTWALKER is his most complete statement to date as a leader. It's a rich and funky disc, with arrangements and production that push the groove genre to the breaking point. Influences include Squarepusher, Wayne Shorter, Sun Ra and Bjork.
Nightwalker was recorded live with a huge cast of musicians, including guest artists Chris Potter and Billy Kilson (of the Dave Holland quintet,) Peter Apfelbaum (Heiroglyphics ensemble, Trey Anastasio band) and Jon Maron and Barney Mcall of the Groove Collective.
