Sonic Visionary and Creative Mentor
Josh Schroeder is a Pacific Northwest-based artist, national award-winning songwriter, two-time Grammy performer, producer, and session musician. In Summer 2025, Josh joined YMA as the director of their songwriting program, where he helps aspiring artists and songwriters overcome creative roadblocks, break free from self-limiting beliefs, and push beyond their perceived musical boundaries.

Building on this experience, Josh expanded his vision through Thousand Echoes, offering coaching, teaching, and mentorship to empower creatives and songwriters. Through personalized guidance, he equips artists with the tools, frameworks, and inspiration needed to optimize their creative processes and unlock their full potential.

A sonic alchemist at heart, Josh’s music weaves between dream-pop, delicate folk, and modern psych-rock, creating lush, transcendent soundscapes that resonate deeply with listeners. His artistic evolution is chronicled in a rich discography of solo projects, including Love is a Shade and Stark (2009), the experimental Mourningside and Vignettes (2013), and the expansive dual releases Locked Behind an Open Door and Ocean of Space (2022). Josh has continued to release several new songs in 2024 as a solo artist and in collaboration with his wife, artist and songwriter Miranda Vettrus.

Beyond his solo ventures, Josh is the creative force behind groundbreaking projects such as EXROYALE, whose debut single Give It Up garnered international acclaim from outlets like NME and DIY Magazine, leading to a successful West Coast tour. His Orwellian-inspired project Sleep Millennium evolved into Morning Bells, a collaboration with bassist Jarred Venti and drummer John McConnell, crafting visionary new material.

Josh’s music has left an indelible mark on the world of Film/TV/Advertising, with placements in major campaigns and hit shows like Flashpoint, Degrassi: The Next Generation, and Being Human. His custom scores for brands like Apple, Intel, and Microsoft showcase his versatility and innovative approach to sonic storytelling.

In 2020, Josh and Miranda launched Thousand Echoes Studio, a hub for creativity and collaboration. Together, they balance artistry and family life, leading worship at their church and raising two children.

A past winner of the National John Lennon Songwriting Scholarship and a member of ASCAP's prestigious Lester Sill Songwriting Workshop, Josh combines creative mastery with formal training. Holding a BA in Music Business and certifications in sound production (London College of Music & Media) and digital marketing (Portland State University), his expertise bridges artistry and industry. He also worked in Music Publishing with Windswept Pacific and as General Manager with Cryptogramophone Records.

Through Thousand Echoes, Josh continues to expand the boundaries of creativity—helping artists find their voice, build their confidence, and transform their ideas into bold, unforgettable works of art.
