No-one’s disqualified. And in Akron, Ohio, the label (or, rather Peter Gabriel himself) found Joseph Arthur, a singer-songwriter with high-proof creative juices oozing out of every pore.<br /><br />2000’s Come To Where I’m From was his second album for the label. Co-produced by the mighty T-Bone Burnett, it’s a dense, attractively claustrophobic record, full of delightful contradictions: unnerving and reassuring, raw and yet meticulously compiled.<br /><br />Not content to limit himself to guitar, harmonica and sampling wizardry, Joseph is also a writer, sculptor and painter. His drawings and paintings feature in this album’s artwork, which Joseph co-designed and art directed with Zachary Larner. 1999’s Vacany EP had gained Joseph and Zachary a Grammy nomination for the Best Recording Package.<br /><br />On 12 June 2020, Joseph Arthur released an expanded digital version of the album to mark the 20th anniversary of its release. This version included two bonus discs: the first, Heavy Bullets, was a collection of previously unheard and unavailable tracks lifted from the 1999 album sessions, and the second was a recording of an acoustic gig from 2000, Live at the Gypsy Tea Room.
