Australialainen Joshua Meader on vastikään valmistunut kunnia-arvosanoin Sydneyn musiikkikonservatorion jazz-linjalta. Takana on jo lähes 20-vuotinen muusikontaival oltuaan isänsä Paul Meaderin opissa, ja reppuun on kertynyt sellaisia tunnustuksia, kuin toinen sija Australian Jazz Awards -palkintogaalassa, jonka aiempia voittajia ovat hänen triossaan soittavat Matthew Thomson ja Alex Hirlian. Meader on soittanut lukuisilla arvostetuilla festivaaleilla sekä konserttitaloilla, ja vakiinnuttanut paikkansa alan vaikutusvaltaisimpien tekijöiden joukossa.
