Mettere in fila i propri vuoti e dare un senso alle tante cose che sfuggono di mano è un esercizio faticoso. Riavvolgere i fili intrecciati delle tante idee intrappolate in una bolla di resina toglie il fiato. Giungere al momento in cui il giorno si curva è un'impresa titanica. Quotidianamente. E' altrettanto difficile trovare un senso nell'ennesimo disco di Joseph Arthur , per giunta doppio, non molti mesi dopo "The Graduation Ceremony", collezione di ballate autunnali fiorite in piena primavera. La curiosità si specchia e diventa una figura stanca, ma il tasto "download" resta comunque una tentazione. E così [...]
It's no secret that FOX has a habit of canceling its best shows (to this day I still want to have a serious talking to with whoever decided Arrested Development had run its course). And after a recent Lie to Me obsession this summer, I was devastated to find there was no Season 4 to continue my marathon. So consider this playlist Part 1 of a final lament to yet another show that ended before its time. Lie to Me is a drama centered around Dr. Cal Lightman (Tim Roth - [...]

Joseph Arthur surprised a few people with the sudden release of his double album, Redemption City, but the songwriter noted that's no reason to dismiss it: "Please don't take the method or the freedom of this release to be any judgment on its value," Arthur said in a note that was released with the album. "I think it's top notch, but it's great to take advantage of what the internet is actually good at — IMMEDIACY." Read more »

Two ladies of Oregonian and South African descents respectively, two acoustic guitars, one Berlin-based label , and one day upon which two toe-warming records are outed. Hardly The Twelve Days of Christmas, although that aforementioned day has finally dawned as the latest efforts from Laura Gibson and Dear Reader have eventually emerged like newborns wriggling free from cocoon-like blanket, bathed in daylight for the very first time. Indeed both La Grande and Idealistic Animals add some vivacious flicker to the slow-roasting embers of the New Year as Gibson and Cheri MacNeil masterfully [...]

Singer-songwriter Joseph Arthur has been on tour this year in support of his album "The Graduation Ceremony", released earlier this spring. The album is Arthur's first solo album in five years and his first release since last year's debut of the supergroup Fistful of Mercy (with Ben Harper and Dhani Harrison). "The Graduation Ceremony" drew praise from Rolling Stone ("It goes without saying that this album will be on repeat for the next six months to come.") and NPR...
Flashback, 1987: I'm a freshman in high school, just finding my way into the dark underbelly of underground music thanks to the burgeoning alternative college radio scene in and around the Boston area and a younger brother whose musical tastes blossomed early. I hadn't really noticed UK band The Smiths during middle school, but when Girlfriend in a Coma hit the airwaves, it touched me deeply, and I purchased the album from which it came, hardly aware that it would be their last, that the band was already disintegrating from the stress between an exhausted and [...]

Joseph Arthur is a low-key type of guy, having gone vastly unnoticed and living humbly as the existence of a shy folk-star; one whom everyone's heard of, but nobody really knows.
The video was directed by Myriam Santos and is the fifth video in a series from Arthur's fine album, The Graduation Ceremony . http://www.josepharthur.com/
