Wilful Missing
Wilful Missing are a great experience live or on record, with beautifully arranged songs featuring Mandolin, Cello, Acoustic Guitar, Keyboards, Accordion, Bagpipes, Cajon, Drums, Bass, Smacked Electric Guitar, Penny Whistle and Albert’s Whistling!
In 2007 and 2008 Wilful Missing recorded a batch of new songs, while road testing them live around Yorkshire. They have gigged with Jeffrey Lewis, Dufus, The Wave Pictures and Neil McSweeney in Bradford, Leeds, York, London and Sheffield and have made festival appearances in Bradford and the Yorkshire Dales. Wilful Missing have played recorded live radio sessions on Bradford’s BCB106.6FM and Ramair.
2010 sees the release of the Vast Atlantic EP, and recording for the next one has already started.
“Bradford’s Wilful Missing seem to be instinctive elaborators of melody, and a rewarding texture appears to develop effortlessly in their work.” www.LeedsMusicScene.net (gig review)
“From contagiously happy-go-lucky keyboard licks and cheery vocals to piercing, tortured guitar riffs and soulful wails Wilful Missing manage to cover a lot of acoustic ground . . . managing to be eclectic yet consistent thanks to the continuity provided by Sam Kipling’s distinctive vocals.” Sandman Magazine CD review, September 2008
