Details:
Recording artist Joshua Hallas has been singing well over 20 years. He has been writing and composing his own music for over 10 years. He comes from a long lineup of talent in his family including his late grandmother Kitty Chuckles who sang on the radio at age 13. The youngest of four brothers Joshua's mom helped support the family with her singing and she is still singing professionally until this day.

In 1998 Joshua's music dream was completely destroyed by a trucking accident he had in Encino, CA. Another motorist had gone through a red light and crashed into his big rig. His left arm was caught in the steering wheel and broken in 5 spiral fractures. His arm was left broken for three days until he could get some help from Loma Linda specialists. When he got home he wept with his wife thinking he would never play guitar again.

In 2002 he picked up his guitar again and started writing songs again. After some personal struggles his wife and he decided to sell their home in Big Bear, CA and go to Nashville, TN. He traveled across the United States with an RV and sang to many along the way. While in Nashville he got to sing at Opry Mills in the Gibson Theatre and sing with musicians that backed people like Garth Brooks and George Strait. He met and learned from the most talented writers and musicians from all over the USA. He also recorded his Cowboy Romance demo.

After Joshua returned he hooked up with his friend Jeff and started the band Sojourner. They went on a songwriting binge and wrote over a dozen songs together touching many people along the way. They toured for a year, got played and interviewed on 99.5 KKLA. When Sojourner decided to pursue a different artistic direction Joshua decided to go solo again. Now Joshua is pleased to present to you all of his life's experiences and share them in his new CD Two Boards, Three Nails.
