Art Paul Schlosser(born in Chicago January 4, 1960) grew up listening to weird demented music like Allen Sherman and Tiny Tim as well as funny songs by The Beatles {like Yellow Submarine} & and The Monkees {Gonna Buy Me A Dog} . When Art was 11 he, his Mother and his Sisters moved to Madison,Wisconsin after his parents got a divorce. In Madison as a kid his mother continued to play weird and funny songs for him and even mixed things up by playing strange sound effects on one recorded player while playing weird songs to go with the strange sound effects.As a teenager Art Paul join a work experience play group that encouraged Art to be creative. In the Work experience play group Art met a bunch of fans of The Beatles one of which encouraged Art Paul to write lyrics. It was from that time on that Art started to write. Art would listen to the Dr Demento radio show as well as other strange records that he discovered at the local library and then try to write some lyrics he was inspired to write after listening to the songs. Eventually Art Paul discovered that it was legal to be busker on State street so on a warm day late in February 1986 Art Paul try it out and received a couple of dollars for his effort. Since then Art Paul has been a street musician and busker as well as an outsider artist on State Street in Madison, Wisconsin[1] since 1986. He is best known for his funny music especially "Have A Peanut Butter Sandwich", which made the Funny Five of the Dr Demento radio show four times in 2001[2][3][4][5]and Vote for Me/It's a Joke which was on the Funny Five of the Dr Demento radio one time in 2003.
He usually performs his original songs or parodys on an acoustic guitar and kazoo. He also sometimes plays electronic keyboard or ukulele.[6] He sings mostly humorous songs, but has also written on the topics of politics and religion.[7] His music has been played on oddball radio programs, including Greasy Kid Stuff[citation needed],The Mad Music Hour,Dave's Gone By and the Dr. Demento Show, and he has appeared on his own public-access television show[1]as well as WGN-TV news.
