Josh Arnold (born 1976) is a Golden Guitar-winning Australian country musician.[1]

Arnold is known for his solo career which saw him release the albums Galvanize (2001), Scarifier (2003) and Fire in the Sun (2005).[1]

At the 2002 Country Music Awards of Australia, Arnold and Lee Kernaghan won a Golden Guitar for their version of "Thank God I'm a Country Boy", a single from Galvanize.[1]

In 2020, Arnold formed a new group called Josh Arnold & The Woolshed Band.[2] Their debut EP entitled Raddle & Rise generated the single "The Woolshed".[3]

While working as a teacher's aide in Toowoomba in 2010, Arnold launched a project called Small Town Culture with the University of Southern Queensland.[4] Arnold has since visited hundreds of rural and remote towns throughout regional Queensland to collaborate with local schools, community groups and organisations to create original songs and music videos.[1][5]
