Name: Joshua Madine
Status: Former / Staff
Birthday: October 26, 1994

In March 2005 Josh made his first public appearance with Libera. Since then he quickly became one of the most known Libera figure. As of August 2012, Josh holds the longest active Libera chorister record. He is also the oldest Libera to have a solo in both album and live concert. His last recorded solo "Coventry Carol" is listed on The Christmas Album which released in October 2011. Josh was 16 at the time of recording. Josh was only a couple months from turning 18 years old when he soloed "Faithful Heart" in Channel Islands concerts in August 2012. His last public concert appearance as a chorister was November 2012 but this is not the end of his Libera career. 

Since August 2012, Josh has been playing keyboards at the concerts and fully transited to a Libera staff from 2013. 

Josh is the older brother of Matthew Madine. His cousins in Libera include: Sam Leggett, Alex Leggett, Jakob De Menezes-Wood, Michael Menezes and James Menezes
