Joseph Arthur, NY-based song-crafter and visual artist extraordinaire will be releasing a series of four solo EPs in 2008, all leading up to the glorious month of August, when the series culminates with the release of a full-length record featuring his band, The Lonely Astronauts.
The full-length, ‘All You Need is Nothing’, is set for release on August 5, 2008.
We’ll be serving up a bunch of goodies along the way, so stay tuned.
The deluge begins March 18, 2008 with the release of EP 1: ‘Could We Survive’ (Lonely Astronaut) a 6-track collection of orchestral songscapes and gorgeous atmospheric pop written, performed and produced by Arthur.

‘Could We Survive’ opens with “Rages of Babylon,” the kind of timeless anthem only Joseph could write, which you can check out below.
