Joseph of Mercury and the deep soulful disco infused pop of "Pretenders"


Joseph of Mercury as singer-songwriter, producer on the track Pretenders creates deep soul induced sultry dance tracks with an unabashedly disco beat. His voice is lush and intimate with an artful poised croon. I thought of old school soul pop outfits like Roxy Music, ABC and Spandau Ballet and even Michael Jackson when you listen to the pulsating production. Dust off the disco ball, put on some slick clothes and dance the night away.
