“Moshier is an exceptionally talented musician… The beauty of the music matches its unexpected edge, much like life itself. It’s poignant, but not overly romantic or dramatic… Moshier’s thematic and musical incisiveness offer us a profound glimpse into the temporal.” Evan Toth, The Tracking Angle - SEMIPERMANENCE
"The shadows that had always underscored the laughs in the past are more out in the open now. Even the score by Joshua Moshier is lighthearted, energetic, and uplifting." Hahn Nguyen, IndieWire - BASKETS
“The score by Joshua Moshier provides subtle support for the material without overwhelming the naturalistic approach… The musical choices never manipulate emotions artificially, instead providing organic support for the genuine humor and pathos emerging from the subjects’ own words.” Anderson Vision - ANXIETY CLUB
"The excellent score by Joshua Moshier ('Baskets') adds anxiety into the mix with a piercing, tinnitus squeal of string instruments.” William Bibbiani, The Wrap - BENEATH US
“Moshier creates songs with melody as narrative… balances composition with improvisation, the individual with the group.” Becca Pulliam, NPR Music - TOUCH AND GO: THE STUDS TERKEL PROJECT
