Joshua Lee Turner & Allison Young

Joshua Lee Turner is a multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter, and producer based in Brooklyn, New York. He is best known for his YouTube channel Josh Turner Guitar, where he has been posting both cover performances and original music since he started the channel in 2007 at age 15. Josh now tours internationally in support of his own original music, as well as with long-time collaborator Carson McKee, as the folk duo The Other Favorites. Josh released his first full-length album of original music, As Good a Place as Any, in 2019, and his second album, Public Life, in 2020. 

Allison Young is a singer-songwriter based in Nashville, Tennessee. She plays guitar and is classically trained in piano and vocal performance. Allison is also recognized for her YouTube channel, where she posts cover songs. She’s taken her talents to the stage as a performance vocalist, and to the studio as a session vocalist. Allison has toured the United States with both Scott Bradlee’s Postmodern Jukebox and Alex Mendham and His Orchestra, and is set to tour internationally in the fall of 2022. Allison is currently working on her debut album, which will incorporate elements of jazz and indie music wrapped in hifi production.

Josh and Allison have a combined 740K subscribers and 175M views on YouTube. After connecting through social media, they recorded a series of videos together that draw on their shared love of jazz and classic country music (think somewhere between Julie London and Dolly Parton). They quickly became friends and collaborators, and their 2022 UK tour will be their first live appearances together.
