After sharing the blistering first single from his new album Head In the Dirt, Hanni El Khatib is back to share “Penny,” the Dan Auerbach-produced album’s second single. Where lead single “Family” (and its accompanying video) was all shredding rock and roll debauchery, “Penny” finds Hanni mining a sweeter, pop-ready sound that would feel like the perfect soundtrack to [...]

James Younger
New York, NY (March 21, 2013) – James Younger left Manchester in Britain at the ripe age of 21 and headed to the States.

The Sweet Serenades
