About
Real story. Real songs. No polished fiction.
The Hobo Troubadour is the outlaw country and Americana project of Josh Shepherd, blending Appalachian storytelling with hard-lived truth. Drawing from family legacy, veteran experience, and backroad miles, his songs carry the weight of real life—gritty, honest, and built to be felt whether around a campfire or on a barroom stage.
This project lives at the intersection of family memory, working-class grit, and songs meant to leave a mark instead of sounding pretty.
