Joshua Starkman is a dynamic guitarist, songwriter, performer, and perhaps most notably, the founder and face of the “Have a Great Day!” social media phenom. A Florida native who has called New Orleans home for the past decade, Josh spent many years collaborating with musicians across all walks and talents on the stage and in the studio. A chance foray into filming his guitar playing turned into a wildly popular, and nationally-lauded, series featuring Josh’s effervescent energy while hosting a variety of musical (and sometimes non-musical!) entertainers for unique duets, skits, and interviews. As the “Have a Great Day!” show has caught on – through mediums like Instagram and YouTube, Josh’s deeper commitment to mental health conversations and openness with his own mental struggles has grown. Josh took a few minutes to rap with us on all things music and mental health – read on to learn more of his journey in music – for the mind!
