Listen to \u2018<em>Live Your Life\u2019<\/em> from his first album <em>The Road Back Home<\/em> and you\u2019ll probably find yourself rocking back and forth to the beat and maybe even tapping your toes. His style emulates the blues but with a touch of funk and a hint of rock. His voice is smooth but with a rough sort of edge. He takes you into his music with his soulfulness. His lyrics tell you a true story of where he\u2019s been, what he\u2019s done \u2013 ultimately what was going on at the time he was inspired to write a song.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBoth sides of my family were extremely musical,\u201d says the 34-year-old, who moved to Huntsville when he was eight years old. \u201cMy father was from Puerto Rico and was a percussionist, and could also play the flute and the standup bass. My mom was a bluegrass musician, and she even did some touring, so it was kind of unavoidable that I would get into music too. They fed it to me from infancy. I remember when I was two years old, I got some pots and pans and grabbed the wooden spoons and pretended to play the drums. From the earliest point, music was always really powerful in my life<strong>.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_6778\" style=\"width: 1414px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2015\/11\/juan_barbosa1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6778\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6778\" src=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2015\/11\/juan_barbosa1.jpg\" alt=\"Barbosa leaning in the doorway of his studio, appropriately called Small Temple Studio.

His mom made him the door sign from an old guitar he found.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Barbosa is not typical in the sense that he can play all the instruments that would make up a four-piece band. He first learned the drums followed by the bass and didn\u2019t get into playing the guitar and singing until later in his teenage years. As a teenager he admits to being socially awkward and shy, which is why, when he first started playing gigs in front of people, he\u2019d often play with his eyes closed. He didn\u2019t want to see them looking at him. It was almost a distraction. But with experience comes confidence and he was eventually able to conquer his fear of an audience. Now he gets a thrill out of seeing people get their groove on to his music.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"modern-quote full\"><p>What do I love about the blues? I just think it\u2019s raw. It\u2019s not dressed up.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>He has three albums under his belt, all of which feature original material that he recorded and produced from his perfectly-quaint home studio in town. His debut album titled <em>The Road Back Home <\/em>came out in 2012. A year later he produced <em>Listen!<\/em> and his most recent <em>Soulbot 6000<\/em> came out in late August. Barbosa is devoting much of his time these days to promoting that record and he\u2019s still on the hunt for the perfect venue for a CD release party. But first he has to order some more CDs because they all sold.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cI think my music has definitely become more mature. There\u2019s still some anger and comedy and some love in there. But it\u2019s much more balanced now. I feel my sound has changed drastically since I discovered the blues. What do I love about the blues? I just think it\u2019s raw. It\u2019s not dressed up. All pop music, all American-pop, comes from the blues. It\u2019s the mother of everything. There wouldn\u2019t be rock or punk or metal if it wasn\u2019t for that style of music and I think that speaks volumes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Barbosa has his own list of musicians who inspire him. He loves Jimi Hendrix and James Brown.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn my heart, I\u2019m both of them at the same time,\u201d he says with a laugh.<\/p>\n<p>But legendary bluesman Buddy Guy is at the top of his list when it comes to his all-time favourite.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI saw him live for the first time this spring and it just changed my life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s been able to make a living doing what he loves to do. Prior to becoming a full-time blues musician, Barbosa spent five years making beats and inviting vocalists into his Toronto apartment as a hip-hop music producer. But \u201ca bad element of the scene\u201d drove him away from the city and back to Muskoka. He\u2019s been pouring his heart out musically here ever since.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_6782\" style=\"width: 950px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2015\/11\/juan_barbosa7.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6782\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6782\" src=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2015\/11\/juan_barbosa7.jpg\" alt=\"Barbosa's life these days is all about the music.\" width=\"940\" height=\"1414\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2015\/11\/juan_barbosa7-199x300.jpg 199w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2015\/11\/juan_barbosa7-681x1024.jpg 681w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2015\/11\/juan_barbosa7.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 940px) 100vw, 940px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-6782\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Barbosa&#8217;s life is all about the music.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>And getting up and heading to his small studio on a Monday morning isn\u2019t so bad.

I love this little town. I always knew it would be the place I'd plant my roots. I need coffee, a bag of chips, bubble bath and foot rubs. My kids are my life. I believe in sleeping in on Sundays and that laughter is the best medicine. Writing has always been my thing and I have an interesting rock collection, too. I enjoy meeting new people so if you see me out and about don\u2019t be shy to say hi.","url":"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/author\/laura\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6797","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6797"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6797\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6797"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6797"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6797"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
