The Audio Perv

SPRING 2009: In a small town called Steventon, just south of Oxford in the United Kingdom, Brooklyn songwriter/principal heretic Jason Sebastian Russo and a constituency of british pop talent hauled several half-tuned guitars, myriad scraps of rusty metal and a piano with a knee-high flood watermark into a cow barn on the Truck Family farm. So was born There Is A Mountain, the first album by Common Prayer.

Fronted by Russo and Alexandra Marvar, Common Prayer plans to release their first album in the US on April 27th, right around their performance at the Truck America Festival. Check them out during SXSW at our Manic Fest Destiny Party (RSVP HERE)
