New West Records is a rock-oriented independent label that was founded in 1997. With a focus on alternative, indie, country, and folk music, this US-based label has established itself as a powerhouse in the industry. Headquartered in Los Angeles and Austin TX, New West Records also exclusively represents the renowned PBS Television program Austin City Limits. Known for their commitment to showcasing both archival and current performances, this label releases an impressive range of music on DVD and CD formats.

The *Pernice Brothers* are an American indie rock band founded in 1996 in Dorchester, Massachusetts by Joe Pernice. Known for their melodic and introspective songs, the band has garnered a dedicated following over the years.
Influenced by artists such as *Joe Pernice*, *The Posies*, and *Scud Mountain Boys*, the Pernice Brothers have carved out their own unique sound within the indie rock genre. Their music combines elements of folk, pop, and rock to create a captivating and emotive listening experience.
With a discography that includes albums like "Overcome By Happiness" and "Yours, Mine & Ours", the Pernice Brothers have consistently delivered memorable tracks filled with poignant lyrics and infectious melodies. Fans of *Velvet Crush*, *Brendan Benson*, or *Teenage Fanclub* will find themselves drawn to the heartfelt songwriting and impeccable musicianship of this talented group.

The story of Overcome By Happiness is one of great risk and greater payoff. It’s the story of a disgruntled country singer struggling to define himself against prevailing musical trends. It’s the story of a songwriter just finding his voice, an artist so desperate to express himself that he scrapped one band to form another, risking his record contract and arguably his career to put the sounds he heard in his head onto tape. It’s the story of a musician embracing the sounds of his childhood: AM easy listening, sophisticated chamber pop, baroque lounge music, Bread, the Carpenters, Bacharach, Manilow. It’s the story of a poet driving through Massachusetts in a rusted-out Bonneville with a wooden bumper. The time has come for this story to be told on vinyl. Released 25 years later to the day, New West Records is proud to present the remastered 25th anniversary edition of Overcome By Happiness on vinyl. This release features two orange and white splatter LPs held by thumb notch sleeves inside of a hardback book gatefold. The album audio also includes a 13 track bonus LP featuring 8 previously unreleased demo recordings The package features a 52-page book showcasing extensive liner notes, printed lyrics, forward and track by track written by Joe Pernice as well as previously unseen photographs. Each copy comes with a 5x7 autographed print.
