New Single To Benefit Pulse Orlando Victims

Josh Walther recently wrote and recorded “Orlando” in the wake of the Pulse Orlando tragedy. All proceeds from the song will go to the “Pulse Victims Fund.” Josh wrote the song with friend and singer/songwriter Alissa Moreno. Alissa is best known for penning the grammy nominated and CMT video of the year song “Every Day” for Rascal Flatts, “Far From Here” for the hit TV show “Army Wives” & the theme song from ABC’s “Hope & Faith."

Josh has said on the song;
"I wrote this song for my own therapy much like a journal entry. After sharing it with a few close friends they encouraged me to record it. Although I wrote this about Orlando, it applies in so many situations. I know all too well that in hard times the support of others is all that we have. Don't remain silent because you may not agree with someone’s lifestyle or political views. Always say something. If you don't know what to say, 'I'm sorry' or 'are you ok?' always work. Don't let your silence cause even more pain."

Please help by either sharing the video or downloading the track. All proceeds will go to the Pulse Victims Fund. You can download the song here. See the music video here.

Phase 5 Plays with Sir Paul McCartney! For Real.

Josh Walther and the Phase 5 Band shared the stage with a living legend on Saturday night, May 9, 2015. They were hand picked by Sir Paul McCartney and his wife to play at a family event, and there was certainly no saying “no” when he asked to join them in an impromptu blues riff “Graduation” and a rendition of The Beatles “I Saw Her Standing There.”

As if that were not thrill enough, the story has gone viral… from here to Brazil, New Zealand, and even Good Morning America! Check out what everyone in the world has to say online here, check out the brief video clip here, and stream the full-length audio of the performance via SoundCloud below!
