Instruments
Josh Milan has been a musician since the age of 12 when he filled in for the church organist at a moment’s notice. This divine entrance into his musicianship ignited a spark that is still thriving today— four decades later.
Josh is known for his soulful, rhythmic keyboard playing, and has contributed his signature style for such artists as Mary J. Blige (certiftied Platinum album), the Pet Shop Boys (certified Gold album), Dionne Warwick, Melba Moore, Jody Watley, Jocelyn Brown, Loleatta Holloway, Luther Vandross, Billy Cobham, Morris Day, Luisito Quintero, and others.
Today Josh Milan is a revered multi-instrumentalist.
In addition to keys, he plays guitar, bass guitar, bass, flute, and percussion. He insists on infusing live instrumentation in his productions, collaborations, releases, and remixes. His passion for songwriting is invigorated whenever he picks up one of his instruments.
As an artist, he has found his greatest joy when performing and playing live as Josh Milan & Band.
