JOSEPH ARTHUR is an American singer/ songwriter who is also recognized for his qualities as a painter. He paints live on stage creating loops with his guitar and voice (a technique he pioneered in the 90’s and has since been widely adopted)
Spotted by Lou Reed and Peter Gabriel, in 1996, the artist now has fifteen albums and several EPs to his credit. He’s also at the origin of several bands: The Lonely Astronauts,
Fistful Mercy which he founded with Ben Harper and Dhani Harrison, RNDM with Jeff Ament of Pearl Jam, Arthur Buck with Peter Buck and most recently Silverlites with Rich Robinson,
Peter Buck and Barrett Martin.
Joseph has enjoyed much success in the past on triple A radio with songs like Honey And The Moon (also featured in the OC and American Pie) And His song "In the Sun" which was covered by singer Michael Stipe of R.E.M and Chris Martin of Coldplay, as well as by Peter Gabriel and was featured in the movie ‘Saved’.
Joseph Arthur on stage defies simple description who with his guitar, pedals, drum pads, keyboards and mics, builds live productions of swirling compositions which gives
stripped-down pieces a kind of improvised orchestration that is unlike anyone else. Joseph Arthur draws his inspiration from a wide range of artists ranging from Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan, Lou Reed, Nick Drake to Nirvana, the clash and early hip hop. The finesse of the compositions and the richness of the orchestrations make Joseph Arthur one of the best
American songwriters of the XXI century.
His new album with Peter Buck called Arthur Buck 2 is coming out October 2025 And his new solo album will be released early in 2026, the first single ‘Rise’ is a return to the magical strength of the strongest work of his past. Written the day Neil Peart (RUSH) died, it’s an uplifting homage to living a life of inspiration and celebration of the potential of all of our dreams.
