Joseph Arthur and the Lonely Astronauts land at York's Strand

Posted by Michael Sedor/PennLive.com October 15, 2008
Flamboyantly artistic singer/songwriter Joseph Arthur brings his band The Lonely Astronauts to York's Strand-Capitol Performing Arts Center Thursday. Tickets are $19, doors open at 8 p.m. Arthur's dreamy indie rock grasps onto the spiritual, latches onto the poetic abstract, embraces the romantic and dives into earnest indulgence with epic brooding.

So it's only natural that he was first signed by kindred spirit Peter Gabriel. Arthur is currently touring in support of his new album, Temporary People, the fifth! Lonely Astronauts release this year.

Arthur is also an accomplished painter whose abstract expressionist artwork is on display at his Brooklyn gallery The Museum of Modern Arthur.

The Lonely Astronauts music has recently been featured on ABC's Grey's Anatomy and HBO's True Blood and in 2006 was performed live on the David Letterman Show. That performance is below:
