The Mercy Now
We bring the healing power after the fall from grace. Four souls on bended knees, asking forgiveness for the harmonious din and nightly sins. Redemption is always around the corner and there’s no shortage of pleas and hijacked Motown, heavy riffs, and garage rock and soul. Shout with us. Be forgiven. Be saved. Go home cleansed and stained. The hangover is your choice.
