I recently sat down with Joseph Arthur — Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter, painter, poet, and one of the first artists signed to Peter Gabriel's Real World Records — for what is, without a doubt, one of the most profound conversations I've had on Creative Mood.Over a career spanning more than two decades, Joseph Arthur has released over twenty critically acclaimed albums, earned a Grammy nomination for his work with Peter Gabriel, and collaborated with some of the most respected artists in music, including Ben Harper, Peter Buck of R.E.M., Dhani Harrison, and Jeff Ament of Pearl Jam. An early favorite of Brian Eno, who helped launch his career on Real World Records, Joseph has continued to forge deep artistic connections — including a lasting creative relationship with Gabriel — building a body of work that pulses with raw humanity, unfiltered emotion, and an undeniable spiritual force.Introduced years ago to his music through the unforgettable « Honey and the Moon, » I always sensed there was a rare spirit behind the songs — fearless, unfiltered, and deeply alive. When our mutual friend Amélie Chopinet — who booked his current tour — put us in touch, I knew this would be a special meeting.Joseph is, by far, the most soulful and accomplished musician I've had the honor of welcoming to the podcast — a potent blend of artistic mastery, raw honesty, and spiritual depth.In the first half of our conversation, we explore the spiritual and emotional landscape that defines where he stands today: forgiveness, overcoming public and personal trials, dismantling the ego, aging, and finding meaning beyond survival. Joseph opens up with striking vulnerability about being, as he says, "canceled," and the grace and inner work it took to move beyond it without bitterness — with a deeper faith in himself.The second half dives into his music — past, present, and future — including an intimate look at his creative process, his approach to live music and the relentless drive that keeps his art flourishing.This episode is a tribute to the beauty of endurance, truth, and the indestructible fire of real artists.On a more personal note, I have to say: this meeting was a major moment for me — both as an artist and on a human level. Having an artist of Joseph's caliber on Creative Mood is a huge validation for what I'm building with this podcast. But beyond that, the timing felt almost fated. So much of what Joseph shared — spiritually, emotionally, and artistically — resonated deeply with where I am in my own life right now. Our conversation touched on the very struggles, questions, and transformations I'm currently living through, making this exchange feel all the more meaningful and alive.Thank you Joseph for making the time.

Send us a message, so we know what you're thinking!This episode, we look back at two hugely influential women artists – Patti Smith, whose 1975 “Horses” album inspired so many artists, and Marianne Faithfull, whose passing in January, 2025, is a huge loss.  “Horses”, with its confrontational approach - “Jesus died for somebody's sins, but not mine” - changed the landscape of rock music for the next few decades.  Produced by John Cale, of Velvet Underground fame, the album opened the door for so many women, including Blondie and so many English punk and new wave bands.  We talk about why we like this album, its influential impact, and how Patti Smith developed over later years. Marianne Faithfull has long been one of our favourites, and we talked about “Broken English” in Season 3.

An unexpected music miracle unfolded in Athens, Georgia when all four original members of REM reunited on stage during a Michael Shannon and Jason Narducy tribute performance celebrating the 40th anniversary of "Fables of the Reconstruction." This rare convergence became the highlight of a music-packed fortnight in Athens, GA that I'm thrilled to share with you in vivid detail.The magic moment happened at the legendary 40 Watt Club when Michael Stipe took the microphone, joining Peter Buck, Mike Mills, and Bill Berry for a performance of "Pretty Persuasion." As someone witnessing this unicorn of rock reunions, I found myself torn between capturing the moment on my phone and simply absorbing the once-in-a-lifetime experience with my own eyes.My Athens immersion continued with visits to iconic landmarks like the Murmur Trestle and Weaver D's (of "Automatic for the People" fame), followed by four days at Cracker's annual "Camp in" event. This gathering of devoted fans—affectionately called "Crumbs"—featured intimate performances ranging from David Lowery and Johnny Hickman's acoustic sets to full-band experiences. A particularly moving moment was Ike Reilly's performances featuring his adult children, weaving themes of redemption and musical legacy.We dive into musical history with explorations of Depeche Mode's "Violator" album and its transformative impact on their fanbase in 1990, plus Mike Watt's collaborative 1995 album featuring members of Pearl Jam, Nirvana, and the Foo Fighters. "Minute with Jimmy" spotlights The Vapors' surprising return with a new album 45 years after their hit "Turning Japanese," proving great music transcends time.Whether you're a devoted fan of Athens' storied music scene or simply love discovering musical connections across generations, this episode captures those special moments when music history unfolds before your eyes—and why sharing these experiences matters now more than ever.Send us a one-way message.

Mike Mills of R.E.M. and the Baseball Project and a new supergroup with Darius Rucker is here, and we've got questions: How did R.E.M. come to share all songwriting credits, and why did Mills initially object? What impact did the albums' producers have? Given the bandmates' senses of humor, why wouldn't R.E.M. smile in photographs? Had R.E.M. decided to call it quits before it made Collapse into Now? What songs did Michael Stipe transform in surprising ways when he added lyrics and vocals? Did Stipe complete every song handed to him by Mills, Peter Buck and/or Bill Berry, and if not, would they consider going back to any of them? Have the Michael Shannon/Jason Narducy R.E.M.-celebrating live shows given Mills new perspective on any of those songs or made him want to play them again with his old bandmates? Why hasn't Mills been driven to make a solo album? And what happened when Mills joined Bruce Springsteen on stage? (Photo by Cass Bird.)

R.E.M.'s Peter Buck Defined Alt-Rock Guitar

In the '80s, Peter Buck's clean, chime-y arpeggios defined the sound of alt-rock to come. From the band's start, his post-Roger McGuinn 12-string style served as the foundation for the band's simple, plain-spoken approach, offering a fresh take on what an independent band could be and inspiring generations of artists to come. Buck not only found his sound quickly, he evolved throughout the band's career. By the '90s, R.E.M.'s sound had evolved to incorporate organic, acoustic textures, and eventually leaning into a glam- and grunge-inspired, distorted-guitar-focused sound on 1994's Monster.Brought to you by Voodoo Lab: https://voodoolab.com/the-power-of-perfect-tone/Follow Nick: https://www.instagram.com/nickmillevoiFollow Jason: https://www.instagram.com/jasonshadrickGet at us: 100guitarists@premierguitar.comCall/Text: 319-423-9734Podcast powered by Sweetwater.

As a companion to the book, Fire Records simultaneously released Steve's first new solo album in 14 years, Make It Right, featuring songs that were inspired by the process of writing his memoir and reflecting on his life, from his beginnings in "Santa Monica" to present days on "Roosevelt Avenue". Steve is currently touring the eastern part of the US, with west coast and European dates to follow in early 2025, promising "a night of songs and stories" that you won't want to miss. Keep up on the latest news at https://stevewynn.net. During our conversation, we also cover: The Paisley Underground - the LA neo-psych scene that also spawned The Bangles, Three O'Clock, The Rain Parade, Green on Red, The Long Ryders! The lasting legacy of their classic 1982 debut The Days of Wine and Roses! What's in store for the out of print Dream Syndicate records Medicine Show (1984) and Ghost Stories (1988)?

The altercation began with a dispute between two vehicles, resulting in Cedeno shooting one individual during a physical confrontation. Police apprehended the suspects in Riverdale. Pena faces charges including aggravated assault and tampering with evidence, while Cedeno is charged with multiple offenses, including aggravated assault, firearm possession during a crime, and reckless conduct. Both are held in Gwinnett County Jail as police continue to investigate.  STORY 2:   Gwinnett Animal Shelter Closed After Illness Outbreak  The Bill Atkinson Animal Welfare Center in Gwinnett County is closed until Dec. 17 following an outbreak of Streptococcus zooepidemicus, which caused the deaths of three dogs. Strep Zoo, a bacterial infection, can cause severe respiratory distress, nasal discharge, and rapid health decline in dogs, potentially leading to death without timely antibiotic treatment. The center stopped adoptions and is collaborating with the Georgia Department of Agriculture to prevent further spread. Pet owners are advised to watch for symptoms and seek immediate veterinary care if needed. The shelter remains open for pet reclaims and intake of sick or aggressive animals.  STORY 3:  Buford to host Holiday Festival and Parade on Saturday  The Buford Business Alliance is hosting its annual Buford Holiday Festival and Parade on Saturday along Buford's Historic Main Street. The parade, featuring over 50 entries including the Buford Band of Wolves and Santa in a vintage red truck, starts at 9 a.m. and ends at the festival grounds at 301 East Main Street. The festival runs from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and includes holiday shopping, food trucks, performances, and a free Kids' Zone with bounce houses, a balloon artist, and caricature drawings. Guests can also enjoy free photos with Santa. Proceeds from the event support local nonprofit organizations, school groups, and scholarships for Buford High School seniors.    We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

Wanted for three counts of attempted murder, Williams was located using Flock cameras after being linked to a black SUV in the area. When police attempted a traffic stop, Williams fled, leading to an 80 mph chase. Officers performed a PIT maneuver near Duluth Highway, stopping the vehicle and arresting him. Williams faces charges including felony fleeing, reckless driving, driving on a suspended license, and more. He was checked for injuries before being booked into the Gwinnett County Jail.  STORY 5:  Gwinnett Police Remind Residents To Take Precautions After Coyote Sightings  Gwinnett County police are advising residents to stay cautious following multiple coyote sightings in the area. To ensure safety, they recommend removing food sources like pet food and birdseed from yards, keeping small pets indoors or supervised when outside, and always leashing dogs. Residents are encouraged to contact Gwinnett Animal Welfare at 770-339-3200 for concerns or unusual coyote activity. Officials noted that while coyotes are common, attacks on humans are rare, with most reports involving sightings.     Break 3:    STORY 6:  Ossoff grills postmaster general over continuing delays in mail delivery  U.S. Sen. Jon Ossoff criticized Postmaster General Louis DeJoy for failing to meet his pledge to restore on-time mail delivery in Georgia, which remains at 75%. The delays began after a new mail distribution center in Palmetto opened last year, with issues arising from a postal restructuring plan aimed at financial self-sufficiency. DeJoy admitted to ongoing challenges, despite promising improvements within 60 days. Ossoff highlighted the severe impacts on seniors awaiting prescriptions, small businesses, and timely delivery of critical notices. DeJoy defended the three-day target for mail delivery, while Ossoff urged for better performance.    STORY 7:  Brookwood Football Parts Ways with Head Coach Philip Jones  Brookwood High School has parted ways with head football coach Philip Jones after 10 seasons. Jones, an alum and former team captain of the 1996 state championship team, led the Broncos to the playoffs eight times, including a Final Four appearance in 2017. His deep ties to the program include playing and coaching under Brookwood legends and continuing his father's legacy as a longtime coach. Despite dealing with health struggles this past season, Jones' impact is widely recognized. The school will now start a nationwide search for a new coach to build on Brookwood's proud traditions and history of success.    Break 4: Ingles Markets 9    Signoff –   Thanks again for hanging out with us on today's Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast.

Music Historian Peter Ames Carlin Unveils The Electrifying Culture Created By The Group REM

An electrifying cultural biography of the greatest and last American rock band of the millennium, whose music ignited a generation-and reasserted the power of rock and rollIn the spring of 1980, an unexpected group of musical eccentrics came together to play their very first performance at a college party in Athens, Georgia. Within a few short years, they had taken over the world - with smash records like Out of Time, Automatic for the People, Monster and Green. Raw, outrageous, and expressive, R.E.M.'s distinctive musical flair was unmatched, and a string of mega-successes solidified them as generational spokesmen. In the tumultuous transition between the wide-open 80s and the anxiety of the early 90s, R.E.M. challenged the corporate and social order, chasing a vision and cultivating a magnetic, transgressive sound. In this rich, intimate biography, critically acclaimed author Peter Ames Carlin looks beyond the sex, drugs, and rock'n'roll to open a window into the fascinating lives of four college friends - Michael Stipe, Peter Buck, Mike Mills and Bill Berry - who stuck together at any cost, until the end. Deeply descriptive and remarkably poetic, steeped in 80s and 90s nostalgia, The Name of This Band is R.E.M. paints a cultural history of the commercial peak and near-total collapse of a great music era, and the story of the generation that came of age at the apotheosis of rock.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.
