Joshua Hyslop - What Have I Done? by nettwerk music group

“One of those superbly talented performers that seems to come from out of nowhere. Young Mr. Hyslop has a singer-songwriter maturity far beyond his years.” – CBC Radio

In anticipation of his first full-length album, Vancouver-based singer-songwriter Joshua Hyslop released “What Have I Done?” (feat. Anna Scouten) via Nettwerk Records.

“What Have I Done?” features the vocal and musical talents of a young man with a mature and measured voice. Despite his youth, Hyslop’s music deftly explores the complicated conversation between the battle and brilliance of life.

“What Have I Done?” is the first new song since last year’s six-song EP, titled Cold Wind.  EP received early support from CBC, Earshot Magazine, Penguin Eggs, Exclaim! and others.
