Coachella 2011: Fistful of Mercy's sweet harmonies

fistfulofmercycbG.jpg

Just caught part of Fistful of Mercy, a supergroup made up of Claremont native Ben Harper, Dhani Harrison and Joseph Arthur. 

Their music is very sun-soaked California, With harmonies evoking Laurel Canyon in the 1970s. 

The trio hung out and recorded their debut album in a matter of days. 

The set today was about 15 minutes late, due to what looked like technical difficulties. 

They opened with "In Vain or True," followed by "As I Call You Down" and "Fistful of Mercy." I wish I could have stayed longer, but I wanted to get back for part of Death From Above 1979.
