Joe Pernice plays old favorites and premieres songs from an upcoming album with no release date yet. Over a 15-year career, Pernice has made 13 records. He began in the mid-90's, with Scud Mountain Boys, who released two albums before signing to Sub Pop and releasing Massachusetts, considered by many to be an alt-country masterpiece. In 1998, Pernice disbanded the Scuds and assembled Pernice Brothers, recording Overcome By Happiness (Sub Pop), called "a startling slice of beauty" by The New York Times and "A thing of pernicious beauty indeed" by The Irish Times. In 1999 and 2000, he released two records, under the names Chappaquiddick Skyline and Big Tobacco. In 2001, he co-founded Ashmont Records, based in Boston, releasing a series of Pernice Brothers records, beginning with The World Won't End, called a "lush, perfectly realized record" by The Onion (not ironically). 2003 brought the release of Yours, Mine and Ours, called "a monumental record from a towering talent" by Magnet. In 2005, Discover a Lovelier You came out, and the song "Amazing Glow" was included in the legendary "Partings" episode of Gilmore Girls. Pernice performed the song on the show. Live a Little, called "a stunning album" by Spin was released in 2006. In 2009 Joe Pernice published his first novel, It Feels So Good When I Stop (Riverhead/
Penguin), and released a soundtrack of the same name, featuring Pernice covering songs referenced in the novel. Goodbye, Killer was released in 2010. Pernice Brothers are currently at work on a new album.
