Introducing The New Mendicants
Say what? You’re throwing two of my favorite songwriters, Joe Pernice and Norman Blake, together? Yeah, I’m totally in. Â The two have teamed up to form The New Mendicants, doing some covers of each other’s work, plus a tune from INXS. Â At this point, that’s about all there is to offer, though I hope that there’s more to come in the very near future. Â The three recorded songs have been filed under the Australia 2013 EP, which you can pick up over HERE. Â One can only hope that this INXS cover below is a good sign of wonderful things to come when these two are afforded time to craft a full album together.
