It may have taken 6 months but the space is finally ready!
To celebrate, JA will perform a rare solo set on 2/15.
The evening will also display a slew of brand new paintings.

Ohio-bred singer-songwriter Joseph Arthur will unveil MOMAR (that’s Museum Of Modern Arthur for those curious) in Brooklyn’s DUMBO neighborhood later this week.
According to The Tripwire, ‘The MOMAR will be exhibiting Arthur’s past and present work, which will be changed up quite frequently, even daily at times.’ His art would best be described as De Kooning-esque modern to my naked eye.
MOMAR is located on 25 Jay Street.

Another artist recommended to me by the lovely Joan As Policewoman. Joseph can be heard doing some background vocals for Joan on Real Life. Turns out Joseph Arthur has been around a while himself. However, Nuclear Daydream is my first introduction to his music. Similarly to M. Ward, Joseph really captures you with his voice and depth of each song. With hints of Jeff Buckley and hints of David Bryne, it’s easy to see why I was drawn to this release. I think it would make a perfect pairing with Nellie McKay’s Pretty Little Head (OUT ON TUESDAY, FINALLY!!). Here’s the first track on the album, ‘Too Much To Hide’ (yousendit).
