Silent Radio Hails The “Poetic Precision” of the innocence mission

Silent Radio writes that “There is a great sense of detail in The Innocence Mission’s latest album, Midwinter Swimmers. It is apparent in lyrics that have a poetic precision… The music is imbued with a fragility reminiscent of Vashti Bunyan and mingles lo-fi charm with subtle shifts to create a cinematic palette. It is a minor key delight from the Pennsylvania trio consisting of childhood friends Karen Peris, Don Peris and Mike Bitts in which they achieve their aim of locating the half-remembered beauty of sing-alongs in their 1970s childhoods. The record aches with memory and is seeped with the miraculous nature of everyday events and objects.” Read the review here.

The album is at radio now from Thérèse Records, Bella Union, and P-Vine.
