Those fans include Sufjan Stevens and Sam Beam (Iron & Wine), who have both covered innocence mission songs, and in whose company the trio deserve to be bracketed. “All I cannot say I hope you know, all you cannot say I hope I can hear,” sings Karen Peris on “Look Out from Your Window,” the strong, circular, and somewhat quirky third track from the innocence mission’s latest album, Sun on the Square. These lines, possibly spoken to her children — one of whom actually plays viola on the song– could be called emblematic for the album. In their own way, Karen and her husband and fellow guitarist, Don Peris, have spent years trying to voice the inexpressible. Since forming the innocence mission in 1985 with Mike Bitts, upright bassist and friend from their Catholic high school, the dreamy, orchestral folk band have spent ten full-lengths speaking to our collective memory and awe at life’s mysteries. Their songs are full of sensory imagery and deeply felt instrumentation, and it’s their unique way of trying to approach universal joys and sorrows that allows the band to achieve the emotional connection with their listeners that makes them so special. Sufjan Stevens talked to NPR about the innocence mission’s music, saying “…what I always come back to, after the din and drum roll, is the small song that makes careful observations about everyday life. This is what makes the music by the innocence mission so moving and profound.” “A most welcome return, from a truly treasured act, ‘Green Bus’ [from Sun on the Square] is an utterly captivating next-step in the innocence mission’s journey, in all the ways we’ve come to expect, and more so. Just like the steady passing of time, just like the world itself.” – Gold Flake Music UK Artist Innocence Mission, The Genre Folk Label Badman Buying Options 1LP Format 1LP Condition New Country UK Track Listings Records From Your Room Green Bus Look Out From Your Window Shadow Of The Pines Buildings In Flower Sun On The Square Light Of Winter Star Of Land And Sea An Idea Of Canoeing Galvanic Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Innocence Mission, The and more from Folk View Product Quick View Innocence Mission, The Now The Day Is Over Americana / Country | Badman | 1LP Released 8th December 2023 £30.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Innocence Mission, The Now The Day Is Over £30.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Badman SKU: BRC952 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 8th December 2023 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Innocence Mission, The See You Tomorrow Rock And Pop | Bella Union | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Includes Download Code Released 17th January 2020 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Innocence Mission, The See You Tomorrow £19.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Bella Union SKU: BELLA993V Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Includes Download Code Released Date: 17th January 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Innocence Mission, The Befriended Rock And Pop | Badman | 1LP Released 23rd August 2019 £20.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Innocence Mission, The Befriended £20.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Badman SKU: BRC971 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 23rd August 2019 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Innocence Mission, The Sun On The Square Rock And Pop | Bella Union | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Includes Download Code Released 3rd July 2018 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Innocence Mission, The Sun On The Square £19.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Bella Union SKU: BELLA789V Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl, Includes Download Code Released Date: 3rd July 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View 9Bach Anian Folk | Real World | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 27th May 2016 £15.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders 9Bach Anian £15.00 Genre: Folk Label: Real World SKU: LPRW214 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 27th May 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Alela Diane & Ryan Francesconi Cold Moon Folk | Believe Recordings | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 14th October 2015 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Alela Diane & Ryan Francesconi Cold Moon £16.00 Genre: Folk Label: Believe Recordings SKU: BR095 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 14th October 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Kathryn Joseph Bones You Have Thrown Me And Blood I’ve Spilled Folk | Hits The Fan Records | 180g, 1LP Released 8th June 2015 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Kathryn Joseph Bones You Have Thrown Me And Blood I’ve Spilled £22.00 Genre: Folk Label: Hits The Fan Records SKU: HTF002LP Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 8th June 2015 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Yorkston / Thorne / Khan Everything Sacred Folk | Domino | 1LP, Includes Download Code Released 15th January 2016 £17.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Yorkston / Thorne / Khan Everything Sacred £17.00 Genre: Folk Label: Domino SKU: WIGLP367 Formats: 1LP, Includes Download Code Released Date: 15th January 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Case Hardin Colours Simple Americana / Country | Clubhouse Records | 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released 9th June 2018 £15.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Case Hardin Colours Simple £15.00 Genre: Americana / Country Label: Clubhouse Records SKU: CRUK0031LP Formats: 1LP, Gatefold Sleeve Released Date: 9th June 2018 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Caedmon Caedmon Folk | English Garden | 1LP Released 23rd July 2012 £16.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Caedmon Caedmon £16.00 Genre: Folk Label: English Garden SKU: ENG 1014 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 23rd July 2012 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Various Artists Imaginational Anthem vol.
