UPDATE: You can also watch Fistful of Mercy's KCRW show NOW, on demand.
Supergroups are generally boring (Monsters of Folk? Them Crooked Vultures?) and shortlived (hello, Audioslave? Velvet Revolver?) so we don't know what's up with Fistful of Mercy, which is made up of Ben Harper, Dhani Harrison (George's son and sometime video game designer) and artsy singer-songwriter Joseph Arthur. Will it be good? Will it be bad? Judge for yourself and their first video after the jump, or listen to them at KCRW tomorrow at 11 a.m.
