JOSH BURKETT is the operator of MYSTERY TRAIN RECORDS in Amherst, MA. So if you went to a school in western MA chances are you’ve encountered this quiet, shy and amazing guy behind the counter as you purchased a sick used John Fahey CD, or something. Josh is also a great maker of music, these days playing with FROZEN CORN, TARP, and even sometimes still and many times in the past under his own name where he conjures a brittle, and strange ethereal folk music. He also releases records as MYSTRA RECORDS.
