Most recently, Thompson is a co-writer on both Jon Pardi’s current single “Ain’t Always the Cowboy” and Tyler Farr’s current single “Only Truck in Town.” Thompson also has songs on upcoming album releases from Luke Bryan, Sam Hunt, Florida Georgia Line, and Morgan Wallen.

“Writing and creating songs with my buddies is the best job in the world. I’m truly honored to live this life and be in this special industry. I’m excited to start the next chapter of my music row story with the passionate team at MV2. I genuinely look forward to further building on what James, Tony, Mike, and Ben have started,” says Josh Thompson.
