Josh Thompson is a founding member of Roman Street, forming the band with his brother Noah when he was 18. Now 22, he is a senior at Auburn University majoring in Exercise Science. His road with music began with him playing acoustic guitar in his local youth group, but this path took a dramatic turn upon his meeting of two guitar virtuosos (Tonic Strings) from Switzerland. They forever changed his perception of not only guitar playing, but what is means to be a musician. He has taken these lessons and applied them to Roman Street, where he creates and performs music that he considers to be an extension of himself. Though he plans to eventually attend medical school, his immediate plans are to continue to tour and craft music with his brother and three of his close friends.
