WXPN Welcomes Joseph Arthur

Spotted by Lou Reed and Peter Gabriel in 1996, Joseph Arthur 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, Bob Dylan 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 21st 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.

Joseph Arthur’s new album is scheduled for release in 2025.

Jimmy Gnecco is the iconic voice, presence, writer and multi-instrumentalist behind the American band OURS. He has lent his voice to numerous songs and projects, including those with Brian May of Queen, Robert DeLeo of the Stone Temple Pilots, Never Ending White Lights, and Of 1,000 Faces.

An alchemist of emotions, Jimmy Gnecco has put his heart and soul into the songs on his new album New Age Heroine to find a way of transcribing the complex range of feelings that define the humanity of each and every one of us, to offer the world something that transcends all that, in a surge of love, compassion, forgiveness, understanding... Or how to turn music and words into something more beautiful, something greater; like turning lead into gold.
