An Evening with Ben Arnold

After a sold-out performance in April, singer, songwriter and musician Ben Arnold returns to The Living Room for another rare solo performance.

Arnold remains a fixture on the Philadelphia musical landscape, having been a vital part of the scene for the last 25 years. He has been involved in collaborative projects including 4 Way Street (Sanctuary/BMG), US Rails (Blue Rose/Europe), the Los Angelesbased indie rock band Pistol for Ringo as well as David Uosikinnen's In the Pocket: Essential Songs of Philadelphia, all the while creating and recording his own brand of soulful songwriter rock.

Originally signed to Columbia Records in the '90s, Arnold has since released countless label-supported and independent albums. Always down for the challenge of reinvention and experimentation, you will see him constantly visiting far-flung points on the musical map. His constant output of new material is a testament to the continual growth of his creative muscles, as well as a product of the many worlds in which he operates. His most recent releases, "Lost Keys" (2016) and "Sunday Morning Meltdown" (2018) explore the feel, culture and politics of American music of the '60s and '70s through the lens of the questions of the here and now.

With a crusty, curmudgeonly, but loving take on the world around him, Arnold continues to reveal more of himself with every record and live performance. Always a different day, another mood and another view on the human condition. This is not an artist who has simply paid his dues. Ben Arnold is compelled to doing what he does, and he does so with one of the most unique, if little known voices in music today.
