Shins man and Danger Mouse team up
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 1 October 2009
Shin frontman James Mercer and Danger Mouse have joined forces for a new project, tentatively called Broken Bells, although they have said that may change. The pair are currently working on their debut album, planned for release next year, and have launched a website, which you can look at here: www.brokenbells.com
Mercer and Danger Mouse previously worked together when the former provided guest vocals on a track called ‘Insane Lullaby’, for the latter’s project with Sparklehorse man Mark Linkous, Joker’s Daughter.
The announcement of Broken Bells’ existence has sparked speculation that this may mark the end of The Shins. As announcements such as this tend to do.
