Fistful of Mercy is a rock group consisting of Dhani Harrison, Ben Harper and Joseph Arthur. ==History== The band formed in February 2010, when Arthur asked Harper to accompany him in the studio; Harper then asked Harrison, whom he had met at a skate park in Santa Monica, California, to accompany them. Upon arriving at the Carriage House studio in Los Angeles’ Silverlake neighborhood, the trio went on to write and record nine original acoustic songs.〔("Dhani Harrison, Ben Harper Form New Band" ).

Violinist Jessy Greene also participated in the recording. The band subsequently made their live debut in a performance for KCRW's ''Morning Becomes Eclectic'' on August 26, 2010.〔(Fistful of Mercy ) on KCRW.〕 Fistful of Mercy released their debut album ''As I Call You Down'' on October 5, 2010 via HOT Records.
