Josiah and the Bonnevilles is the stage name of Josiah Leming (born 1989, Morristown, Tennessee), a singer-songwriter who blends folk, Americana, and country rooted in his Appalachian upbringing. He first came to wider attention after appearing on American Idol season 7, which led to a Warner Bros. deal at age 19, before he went independent and built a devoted grassroots following - naming his fans the Bonnevilles and folding them into his artist name. The 2023 album Endurance broke him through to a broader audience, and in 2026 he signed with Rounder Records and released As Is, his most collaborative and electric record to date.
Josiah and the Bonnevilles released As Is on May 8, 2026 via Rounder Records - their first album on the label and their most electric record to date.
The Redline North American Tour launched in support of As Is, with dates across the US and Canada including Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles, Vancouver, and Seattle.
The album's lead single 'Hell Without the Flames' was released alongside an official music video filmed in Bogotá, Colombia.
In 2024, Josiah and the Bonnevilles completed a sold-out 33-date headline tour and appeared at Newport Folk Festival, Bonnaroo, and Lollapalooza.
Josiah and the Bonnevilles made their Grand Ole Opry debut in 2024, following the breakthrough success of the 2023 album Endurance.
