The Little Mill of Happiness
The Little Mill of Happiness formed outside the Market Bar, Inverness after sharing a mutual love of Pavement, Tom Waits, The Replacements and Dinosaur Jr. The band have worked hard behind closed doors to produce an extensive catalogue of material. They pride themselves on each song being different in style and having its own personality. Vocalist Steve Obern’s unique voice brings these songs to life, whether it be from a delicate whisper to a guttural yell. The 3 “guitar orchestra” of Matt Campbell, Pete MacDonald and Willie Macaskill assure that the sound is layered and thick, ranging from dirty grunge riffs to picked melodies. This is all backed up by the confident bass of Ali Brown and drummer Craig Aitkenhead.
The band have recently released their debut EP which is available in our shop and iTunes
The Little Mill of Happiness were also one of the featured artists on HAIL Music’s direct to industry Download Card for 2011 which was promoted at key events across the globe.
