Joseph Arthur +// Adam Rotheram- Live at Prohibition

Joseph was discovered by Peter Gabriel in the mid-1990s and became the first American rock artist signed to Real World Records. His debut Big City Secrets was followed by Come to Where I’m From (2000) and his 1999 Vacancy EP received a Grammy nomination. He has toured with R.E.M. Ben Harper and Gomez and collaborated on:

Fistful of Mercy : with Ben Harper and Dhani Harrison

RNDM : with Jeff Ament (Pearl Jam) and Richard Stuverud

Arthur Buck : with Peter Buck (R.E.M.)

He has also performed with Mike Mills and Bill Rieflin of the wider R.E.M./Athens community. Joseph performs largely solo building a surprisingly full sound through live looping and sometimes creates a painting during the show. Recently he has been working with Melanie Gabriel whose vocals add another dimension to the live performance.
