The Oedipus Project
Our artists are our voice. Artists speak for us.
I have been moved by Joseph Arthur since the days of his great album Redemption’s Son.
In the face of a demagogue, Arthur needed to write:
“The Campaign Song”
Not particularly subtle but to the point.
“The Campaign Song”
There’s a new supergroup on the block and they are Fistful of Mercy. Consisting of Ben Harper, Joseph Arthur and Dhani Harrison, the group recorded an album earlier this year and enlisted drummer Jim Keltner to overdub percussion. (Of the three, I only know Ben Harper personally and besides being a phenomenal guitarist, he is one of the true gentlemen of rock.) The album As I Call You Down is due later this month. The band is offering a free download of their namesake track from their website. Here though is another track from the album entitled “Father’s Son” and is the Song of the Day.
