The Josey Dears

Josey Dear and Drew Victor, two vagabond singer-songwriters played countless solo shows together before joining forces to create "The Josey Dears." A band of multi-talented singer-songwriters performing under the canopy of a spirited delivery of Josey's many songs.

Vocalist Allison Robinson, graduated NYU with a degree in vocal performance. Drummer Katie Schottland has been performing her own brand of bitter-sweet folk balladry for the better part of five years. Lee Godleski is a multi-instrumentalist who has been enchanting Brooklynites for years with his off-kilter brand of dynamic song crafting. He grabbed a bass, quickly fell into the pocket, and the band was propelled into something new.

The Josey Dears bring to mind better times. California vibes with New York grit. Forlorn songs of hope delivered with sugar sweet harmonies and relentless make-out vibes. The band itself is a family. With all the joy and the hurt therein. A tight-knit group of talented dreamers singing their way through the confusion of life, looking forward to a brighter tomorrow. They are funny, sweet, and charismatic. They sing songs of sadness, acceptance, love, and loss. All with a knowing smile and a flirtatious wink.
