Brothers Yngve and Demian Wieland form the backbone of 'Yngve & The Innocent', a band which through various lineup changes has moved from Sligo on the west coast of Ireland via Dublin to London where they've been based for the past 4 years. Regularly returning to Ireland they have been averaging over 100 shows a year and have had a succession of breakthroughs including UK national airplay on BBC Radio 2 by Steve Lemacq and numerous festival appearances including this years Hop Farm and Green Man Festivals. Their debut album 'The Sadness of Remembering' was released on July 23rd (distributed by Proper Music Group) and will undoubtedly cement their place amongst the 'ones to watch' for 2012.

 

The release of the 2011 Single 'Draw A Line' (view the official video on Youtube) saw them get favourable attention and reviews in printed publications such as Word Magazine, Artrocker and Hotpress and kicked off a hectic 6 months in which the band toured Ireland 4 times not to mention countless U.K. shows and festival appearances and an eight date trip to Spain. 2012 has already seen the band undertake their first German tour, playing 9 shows in 10 days across the country to a rapturous reception resulting in an offer to release their debut album there through Tonetoaster Records later in the year with distribution in Germany, Switzerland and Austria. The band are on tour throughout 2012.
