Roger Lion

A collaboration between two artists who proved to be simpatico despite having seemingly little in common, Roger Lion was a project that featured singer and songwriter Joe Pernice, best known for his work with the Pernice Brothers and the Scud Mountain Boys, and Budo (aka Josh Karp), a producer and multi-instrumentalist who has worked with Macklemore, Grieves, and M.anifest. Budo and Pernice began working up material by exchanging files online, and without ever meeting face to face, they completed the debut Roger Lion album, which was released by Team Love Records in September 2015. ~ Mark Deming
