Awhile back we mentioned Joseph was having a party at his Dumbo art space the Museum of Modern Arthur, a gallery devoted to his work as a painter (and the occasional party). In the interim he's managed to piss off his landlords. Or as JA puts it, "And the big bad landlord is giving us the boot. (We pay our rent but other things factor into this up and coming thriving metropolis known as Dumbo.)...

The Market Tavern has closed, The Jug of Ale has gone but, the remaining venues and promoters in Birmingham are putting up a good fight to make the best music available at reasonable door prices.Markus Sargeant and The Glee Club are yet another example of what is possible on a budget you can stick under a glass. Many years ago I gave Markus a tape of two Joseph Arthur albums and suggested he ma...

All the while, we are getting our hands dirty painting and sketching on cardboard. This trumps "Into The Actor's Studio" any day.

Phew. Saved the best for last: After a long day of painting, Joseph Arthur took us into the back of his artist gallery, where he has his dujavascript://ngeon-music studio- where all those gritty rock ballads of his are made. He shows us a song he made the night before (with doodles at 3 am) and plays us the lil ditty. He talks about the process and making music magic. Mog's making history and ...

--- - |- Written by: Damian L-K I was a little disappointed when I found out Foreign Girls was actually the name of the EP and the artist was singer/songwriter Joseph Arthur but I was still intrigued. By the first few songs there was sort of formula of talk/singing, with matter-of-fact female back-ups, that I couldn't resist. At first I thought it sounded like a lot of newer bands that I'm ...

Joseph Arthur was amazing. I have a whole new respect for him after seeing him live. He brought his fun cool energy to the show and proceeded to play the songs that he wanted to open the show up with and then he allowed for many audience requests. The best part was that the show was being recorded and post show we could buy a CD of the show (we did!) and then he hung out at the door to sign ...

I was excited to see today that pitchfork posted a review on Joseph Arthur's latest album Let's Just Be... until I read it.OK, so I'm the hugest Joseph Arthur fan I know. Though I can say that about some of my music, I can't say it about all of it. And I have always been torn with Joseph to "keep it like a secret" or to tell "the world at large". In the end I do both. I try to make up for the f...

Two of my most recent in-concert musical finds - the Neighborhood Bullys and Leslie & the Badgers - were originally seen at the behest of reliable friends with good ears. They were perfect examples of that whoa-I-can't-believe-how-great-they-are-and-I-had-never-heard-of-them-before thing.We get a lot of that here at MOG. In fact, it's one of the best things about MOG: the discovery of mind-bogg...
