The batch of songs that turned into Joe Pernice's new record Sunny, I Was Wrong, started out as a trickle of demos shared between Pernice and his longtime friend Warren Zanes, and before long, the trickle turned into a flood. Zanes asked if he could help organize an album from the raw material, and so it was.
This collection of songs have the distinct feeling that they've always been around, since the beginning of time. It was an absolute joy to spend the afternoon with Pernice and guitarist Pete Mancini, easy conversation between takes.
The talent that Pernice surrounds himself with is undeniable, featuring guest vocals from Aimee Mann, Norman Blake, and Rodey Crowell, and piano contributions from "Wichita Lineman" songwriter Jimmy Webb.
