Joseph Arthur, NY-based song-crafter and visual artist extraordinaire is in the midst of releasing a series of four solo EPs, all leading up to September, when the series culminates with the release of a full-length record featuring his band, The Lonely Astronauts.
The full-length, TEMPORARY PEOPLE, will be released on September 16.
The series began March 18 with the release of EP 1: COULD WE SURVIVE (Lonely Astronaut) a 6-track collection of orchestral songscapes and gorgeous atmospheric pop written, performed and produced by Arthur. Could We Survive opens with "Rages of Babylon," the kind of timeless anthem only Joseph could write.
EP 2 CRAZY RAIN was released April 15th and includes "Nothin 2 Hide" features Greg Dulli.
EP 3 VAGABOND SKIES came out June 10 and includes the gorgeous "Pretty Good Company."
An acclaimed painter and Grammy-nominated visual artist, Joseph often creates his artwork while taking breaks during writing and recording. He has written, performed and produced nearly all of the music on these five albums and recorded most of the material in his newly opened Brooklyn art gallery, the Museum of Modern Arthur.
Catch Joseph Arthur on tour throughout June and July , and visit his ongoing exhibition at the Museum of Modern Arthur, like you should.
