About The Innocence Mission
A dreamy folk-pop band from Pennsylvania who found niche success in the alt-rock community of the early '90s, the Innocence Mission's wistful sound is led by the husband-and-wife duo of Don and Karen Peris. Along with bassist Mike Bitts and drummer Steve Brown, they released a trio of well-regarded albums for A&M, the most visible of which was 1995's Glow, which yielded the folky sleeper hit "Bright as Yellow," a staple of modern rock radio and the Empire Records soundtrack. After slimming down to an acoustic trio with the departure of Brown, the band ushered in a successful second phase as a chamber folk act that began with 1999's critically acclaimed Birds of My Neighborhood and continued with late-period highlights like 2007's We Walked in Song and 2018's Sun on the Square. The Innocence Mission continued working into the next decade with 2020's glowing See You Tomorrow and its more lo-fi follow-up, 2024's Midwinter Swimmers.
