One of today’s most prolific voices, Josh Ritter has released eleven studio albums including 2019’s widely acclaimed, 
Fever Breaks
, of which NPR Music praised, “He remains a hydrant of ideas while embodying an endless capacity for empathy and indignation, often within a single song.” Celebrated for his richly crafted storytelling, heartfelt lyrics, and enchanting blend of folk, rock, and Americana, Ritter’s songs are often rooted in personal experiences and historical themes. 
The New York Times
 reflects, “Harking back to Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen and maybe a little Mark Knopfler, Mr. Ritter has always been a slinger of serious ideas and high-flown imagery.”
In addition to his work as a musician, Ritter is also a national best-selling author, having released two novels to date: 2021’s 
The Great Glorious Goddamn of It All
 and 2011’s 
Bright’s Passage
. Released to critical attention, Stephen King wrote in 
The New York Times
 Book Review that Bright’s Passage “shines with a compressed lyricism that recalls Ray Bradbury in his prime … This is the work of a gifted novelist.” 
His latest album, released in October 2024, 
Heaven, Or Someplace As Nice
, is a nine-song collection, featuring legendary jazz guitarist Bill Frisell. It was recorded live in the studio over just a few days, capturing an intimate and organic sound with minimal overdubs. ​Described by Ritter as his "cosmic cowboy mini-album," these original songs evoke a timeless quality, perfect for listening around a campfire or during a quiet evening at home. Notably, the album includes Ritter's own rendition of "Only A River," a song he originally penned for Bob Weir's 2016 solo record, 
Blue Mountain
, and which Bob Dylan covered during live performances in 2023. ​
