The Innocence Mission is an American indie rock band that was formed in 1985 in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. The current line-up consists of Karen Peris on vocals, guitar, piano, and organ; Don Peris on guitars, drums, and vocals; and Mike Bitts on bass guitar and vocals. They have been making music for over three decades and have gained a loyal following with their unique sound.

With Karen's mesmerizing vocals accompanied by the beautiful melodies created by Don's guitar work and Mike's solid bass lines, The Innocence Mission has crafted a distinct musical style that sets them apart from other bands in the indie rock genre. Their heartfelt lyrics often explore themes of love, faith, and nature.

Although they experienced a change in their line-up when Steve Brown left the band in 1998 to pursue a career as a chef at Lily's on Main in Ephrata, PA., The Innocence Mission continued to create music that resonates with listeners around the world. Their dedication to their craft is evident in every song they produce.

The Innocence Mission's album Sun On The Square. Available here on CD.

For fans, The Innocence Mission are beyond a favorite band, more like a beloved companion, such is the intensity and fragility of their sound and vision. Spearheaded by Karen Peris' heartbreaking and breathtaking voice, with husband, the guitarist Don Peris and upright bassist Mike Bitts, they have spent ten records speaking to our collective memory and awe at life's mysteries. Their dreamy, orchestral 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 trio to achieve the emotional connection with their fanbase, which includes Sufjan Stevens and Sam Beam (Iron &amp; Wine), who have both covered Innocence Mission songs.
