Josh Edwards (born July 21, 1991), known professionally as Blanco White, is a British singer-songwriter.
Originally from London, Edwards travelled to Cadiz, Spain to study flamenco guitar under the guidance of Nono García, before going to Sucre, Bolivia where he was introduced to traditional local folk music and learnt to play the charango, an Andean instrument.
In 2014, he brought together Andalusian and Latin American influences while keeping his English musical roots, which launched his solo project Blanco White.
His first show as Blanco White, named after the Spanish poet José María Blanco White, dates back to December 2015 at Proud Camden where he was accompanied by the band Wovoka Gentle.
Since 2016, he toured Europe and the US and was nominated at the Anchor Award in 2018.
On June 5th 2020, Blanco White released his debut studio album titled On the Other Side.
