This Shallow Mercy are a three piece band from Melbourne that provide haunting melodies to power a vehicle for poetry about a world gone mad. A world hard to love. A world where greed and selfishness makes it difficult for many on the planet to survive. A world where wealth is obtained by war. A world that embraces dysfunction to it's highest degree.

Yet there is sense of hope through the joyful backdrop provided by guitarist Timmy Cann who meanders like a jazz player with the soul of a blues man.

Dramatic counterpoint is created by Jodi Ludwig-Moore (Ex-Dirty Lucy) through her insightful viola and backing vocals.

Deb Lord (Ex-Pass the Ammo) is the poet who describes the passion of her lyrics through a soulful voice .

The combined efforts provide an ethereal mood on which to float away, allowing the words to sink into a watching mind and take shape with a reality that is not always easy to look at but describes those truths we shy away from. =====================================
