JOSEPH ARTHUR is an American singer, also recognized for his qualities
as a painter. Spotted by Lou Reed and Peter Gabriel, in 1996, the artist
now has around fifteen albums to his credit. He’s also at the origin of
several bands: The Lonely Astronauts, Fistful Mercy which he founded
with Ben Harper or even RNDM with Jeff Ament of Pearl Jam.
Joseph Arthur on stage could be described as a fallen or cursed angel,
who with his guitar, pedals and mics, builds live real swirling and
captivating melodies which gives stripped-down pieces, without
artifice, inhabited solely by the singer’s voice. Joseph Arthur draws his
inspiration from Leonard Cohen, Joe Henry and Jeff Buckley. 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 song “In the Sun” was covered by singer Michael Stipe of R.E.M and
Chris Martin of Coldplay, as well as by Peter Gabriel.
