"Joshua's imagery evoked a world of old wine bars and coffee-stained book covers. Honky tonk music and worn out shoes. Elusive, mysterious lovers. His plan was to become a locally-revered lyricist, and it wasn't long before his dream came to fruition. Booking a Tuesday night residency at a piano bar called Marla's, his audience grew steadily, to the point where after only a few months of playing at the club, a line would form down the street. Fans could often be overheard saying 'I hope we get to hear some of his new lyrics' and 'I love his lyrics so much.' Since then, Joshua Rainhorn has never strayed far from his adopted home city. Apart from a few two-week tours up and down the Los Angeles/San Francisco corridor, he continued, and still continues, to play venues all around town. He is respected and sometimes quoted by some of the newer singers/lyricists, and his fan base remains as loyal as ever: the very definition of a Hometown Hero."
