The end of Arthur...
Dear friends and fans....
We write this regretfully to inform you that we have decided to call it a day,due to personal reasons within the band.
We would like to thank everybody so so much for all your support over the last 4 years, and for making it worthwhile.
We have had great times which will not be forgotten, and we hope you will never forget us.
I am sure in the future that we will all be involved in music in some way or another.
Anyway...here are two new songs we recorded a month or so ago.
Enjoy.
Love to all
Arthur

3. folk, rock, singer-songwriter Arthur Lee Harper billed himself simply as Arthur (no last name) on his first album, 1968's Dreams And Images, and then as Arthur Lee Harper on his second and last, 1969's Love Is The Revolution. It's the same guy who did both records, and he most assuredly has no connection with the famous Arthur Lee who led the group Love. Arthur, or Arthur Lee Harper, was as mild-mannered a folk-rock, singer-songwriter as there was in the late '60s, singing sad songs that emanated fearful uncertainty, as well as slight airs of self-pity and disengagement. His song, Eleanor is included on the Lammas Night Laments compilation.
4. Arthur was also used as a side project of MxPx featuring all three members of MxPx and their tech assistant. They released an EP called Loneliness Is Bliss. The band members went by their middle names: Arthur (where the band name came from), Edmund, Zane, and Alexander (Mike Herrera, Tom Wisniewski, Yuri Ruley, and Neil Hundt, respectively). Arthur is on a hiatus. Currently, every member's where abouts are unknown, rumor has it, they are enjoying their time off spending all their earnings from their underground success "Loneliness is Bliss". Tell your friends about Arthur, the higher the demand, the more chance we have in seeing one last show or... if we are lucky.. one last album. :D For the other MxPx side project, see The Cootees
