OneRepublic’s Ryan Tedder to
collaborate with Josh?

I posted earlier about a possible upcoming collaboration between Josh and OneRepublic’s Ryan Tedder. After some YouTubing, I found this fanmade mashup of OneRepublic’s Apologize and Josh’s You Raise Me Up, both signature tunes of the artists.

The mashup isn’t official, of course, and the lyrics from both songs don’t seem to sit well too comfortably with each other. But, I must say, the tunes seem to click quite nicely together. On the whole, I quite like it, and would certainly be curious to see what Tedder and Josh can come up with.

Josh will be visiting the studios of 97.1 WASH-FM in Washington, DC next Thursday, 19 June. He will be performing and chatting on their morning show, which you can listen to live on WASH-FM.

For all you lucky Grobanites who live within the DC area, you stand a chance to be in-studio with Josh. Enter now for free tickets to the performance.

Josh is also starting a radio tour. Dates follow.

Josh in Africa

Last month, I posted my suspicion that Josh would be part of Nelson Mandela’s 90th birthday celebration.

Now, Project 46664, the official site for the event, has confirmed that Josh has joined the list of performers at the concert, to be held at London’s Hyde Park on Friday, 27 June.

Josh out and about

Every once in a while, we manage to see some pictures or videos of Josh out and about. This short video interview catches Josh just as he’s leaving a café called Il Sole. It’s funny and attests to Josh’s very normal nature despite his superstar status.
