It Starts With a Birthstone - 200 Albums for 2024 # 15 The Innocence Mission - Midwater Swimmers

 Highest late direct New Entry this year Pop Pickers !

I have the tendency to get highly emotional in response to music and the chords it can instantly strike, it's phenomenal, inexplicable resonance. I'm not ashamed to say it can make me cry.

I always find listening to the Innocence Mission an incredibly emotional and immersive experience.Lo Fi Pennsylvania musing from a married couple who seem to have an intrinsic grasp on the things that really matter.

Sufjan is a huge fan.'Small songs whuch make careful observations about things which really matter.' Midwatter Swimmers is the bands 13th album and charts the passage of time, memory and experience in a deeply poetic and sensitive manner whuch can be quite transfixug and almost heartbreaking.

A beautiful way to set forth into the working week. Here us a band that unlock the inner child. This could easily be my album of the year.
