Joseph Arthur Announces New Three-Album Project

Acclaimed singer-songwriter Joseph Arthur is proud to announce You’re Not a Ghost Anymore, a groundbreaking album project conceived as a single long arc and presented in three separate album-release movements: “Faith,” “Heart,” and “Fight.” The first installment, Faith, arrives via Arthur’s own Lonely Astronaut Records on Friday, April 2nd. Faith is heralded by the project’s tone-setting opening track, “I Wanna Know You,” available everywhere now alongside an official music video filmed by Arthur.

Arthur comments:

“You’re Not a Ghost Anymore is a three-part body of work written over six years, across collapse, recovery, and return. Faith. Heart. Fight. Not genres, but states of being. These songs trace the long arc from disorientation to embodiment, from losing the thread to picking it back up with both hands. It’s a record about staying when disappearing would be easier. About choosing presence over numbness. About coming back into the body, the voice, and the world. But this isn’t a comeback album. It’s a re-entry.”

Regarding the thought-provoking video of the image of Jesus Christ on the back of a truck, Arthur says:

“People keep asking if the video is AI or staged, but it isn’t. I was driving through a tunnel somewhere in Europe, saw the image on the back of the truck in front of me, and followed it. The entire video is one continuous take. Nothing was planned – it just happened.”

Joseph Arthur is an American singer-songwriter, painter, and multidisciplinary artist whose work lives at the intersection of music, visual art, and inner inquiry. For more than three decades, his songs have explored the tension between devotion and doubt, noise and silence, survival and transcendence – earning him a fiercely loyal audience and a reputation for unflinching honesty.

Arthur’s first new solo project since 2019, You’re Not a Ghost Anymore, is a reckoning rather than a retrospective – written from inside the work itself, not from a distance. Born from sustained daily practice, the three albums reflect a stripping away of distraction and self-mythology in favour of clarity, presence, and forward motion. The songs of Faith, Heart, and Fight move between intimate confession and expansive resolve, grounded in Arthur’s unmistakable voice and guided by a renewed sense of purpose.

Arthur will mark the arrival of You’re Not a Ghost Anymore with a major world tour, beginning March 14th at Bologna, Italy’s APS Efesto House, and then making stops in Europe and the United Kingdom through early April. North American dates will be unveiled soon.

Alongside his music, Arthur continues to create and exhibit large-scale paintings and is currently completing A Practical Guide to Supernatural Genius, a book on creativity, attention, and disciplined freedom. Across media, his work asks the same question: what happens when we stop disappearing from our own lives?
