Redemption City is the ninth studio album by American singer-songwriter Joseph Arthur, self-released as a digital download on January 18, 2012.

[1] A double album, fans were given the option to download the release for free, or make a donation.

"[3] Arthur began working on Redemption City in 2009, often abandoning the project, then returning to it; building a recording studio in Brooklyn for the sole purpose of recording the album, and performing each instrument on the album himself.

The next day he said, “I thought of a better title for you.” I asked, “What?” He paused for drama and then said, Redemption City.

9/11 had just happened, it was a crazy title and I instantly liked it better than Redemption’s Son, but it was too late, that record was already on its way to stores.
