Joseph Arthur to open album art exhibition

This month, Joseph Arthur will play a special set on the opening night of MOMAR (Museum of Modern Arthur), the retrospective exhibition of his own artwork, including the display of his self-designed album covers.

Tickets to September 28's opening night will NOT be made public, so fans will have to sit at home and line the walls of their bedrooms with printed .jpgs of Arthur's album art (His album artwork on 2006's Nuclear Daydream scored him a Grammy, after all.)

But two lucky fans will have a much less depressing night, as event sponsor CMJ will give away only two, count 'em, two, tickets to fans of the artist (details to come on the CMJ website).

Look for Arthur's latest album (the details of which have not yet been released) in 2008 on his own label, Lonely Astronaut Records.
