In the video below, BEGGARS & THIEVES guitarist Ron Mancuso talks about the history of the band, the meaning of their new video, 'Innocence; and of the present and future:
The 'Innocence' video, taken from the album We Are The Brokenhearted released last December on Frontiers Records, can be seen below:
About We Are The Brokenhearted singer Louie Merlino remarks: "We wanted to make a PINK FLOYD Dark Side Of The Moon or a U2 Joshua Tree and that is a huge commitment. I’m not saying we achieved it. But that was the level of passion and effort that was put into making We Are The Brokenhearted. I think the new songs show our potential to be a truly classic band and we both feel strongly that this is the best work we have ever done. We just hope people get the chance and take the time to really listen and absorb this as an album: This is an album designed to be listened to as a whole entity, not in shuffle mode on an iPod. This isn’t just some guys trying to have a little fun reliving the past. We got a good ten years left, we aren’t messing around, we are deadly serious. We want to compete with the big boys."
