About this concert
If anyone is truly deserving of the title of ‘artist’ it’s the mercurial talent that is Joseph Arthur. Discovered by Peter Gabriel in the mid-’90s and signed to Gabriel’s Real World label in 1996. Arthur’s first album Big City Secrets was released in 1997 to critical acclaim. He’s been unleashing material for over two decades, his sheer poetic nature and experimental drive gaining him a deservedly fine reputation in the process.
Arthur is a tireless performer – both as solo artist and as a member of Fistful of Mercy with Dhani Harrison and Ben Harper and RNDM with Pearl Jam’s Jeff Ament. Joseph and Peter Buck of R.E.M. released their debut album Arthur Buck in 2018 to universal acclaim. His latest album "Come Back World" features guest appearances by Ben Harper, The Black Keys’ Patrick Carney, Jesse Malin and Greg Dulli and Joseph calls it “an album about rebirth and survival.”

Joseph Arthur Biography
It’s been three years since Joseph Arthur has released a brand-new solo album, and with the upcoming release of Come Back World (October 11th) he’s crafted his most personal and powerful album to date.
“The interesting parts of our stories aren’t the famous people we meet,” Arthur remarked. Or the times when everything is basically working. Or when we get to lay in comfort with a partner watching Netflix and the world go by. The interesting parts are when all those things break down and you’re left in isolation to finally deal with the roots of whatever had been thwarting your existence all along. The interesting parts are when the world has turned its back on you and you have turned your back on it or them. When darkness could seemingly swallow you whole if it hasn’t already. When there is no such thing as hope and so you manufacture it from a dream which only angle is to survive. Come Back World is an album about rebirth and survival.”
Produced by Joseph Arthur and Chris Seefried, the upcoming release features several other amazing artists including: Ben Harper, Patrick Carney, Jesse Malin and Greg Dulli.
Over the course of his career to date, Joseph has released fourteen albums under his own name, eleven official EP’s and has been involved with several high-profile side projects including last year’s collaboration with Peter Buck under the name Arthur Buck, Fistful Of Mercy (with Ben Harper & Dhani Harrison), and RDNM with Jeff Ament and Richard Stuverud.
Recently Joseph Arthur also launched a new Podcast called “Come To Where I’m From” which to date has featured celebrities, comedians and musician from across the board. Recent guests include, Rosanna Arquette, Mark Lanegan, Todd Barry, Keith Morris and Joan Osborne to name a few. The podcast is available in both audio form everywhere Podcasts are found (iTunes, Spotify and Google podcasts) as well as multi-camera Video format on YouTube, with new episodes launching twice a week. All episodes can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/user/josepharthurofficial
