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. 1adam12 was honored to be a member of your favorite band's unknown favorite band "Noise Museum"(pre- internet). 1adam12 is a member of the Glenn Mercer Band (of The Feelies) The Drunkees and formerly of The Oxygen Tent.
