One Mile Wish are based out of Los Angeles, California and the month of June sees the release of their full length debut, "Birds Of A Feather". Known as Pilot earlier in their career, One Mile Wish have made an impressive beginning with this initial album; a body of work literally doused in endearing vocal hooks, with an inherent sense of melody that prevails throughout the recording. Comparable in some ways to latter period Incubus and Mad At Gravity, yet overwhelmingly saturated with inspiringly fresh moments that are all their own, One Mile Wish are definitely one of the most promising rock bands on the independent circuit at present, and "Birds Of A Feather" should be enough evidence to enforce that view in all who decide to check this band out. Frontman Matéo di Virgilio breathes life into their tracks with an effortless and infectious display of charm, whilst guitars inject warmth and momentum, which, when added to the well laid out and carefully penned song structures that One Mile Wish have spent time perfecting, has resulted in the library of strong tracks that represent their debut. ...One Mile Wish will, if justice is served, make quite a name for themselves in these summer months and beyond. - IAYM.com
A melodically catchy form of emotional rock that will get stuck in your head, whether you like it or not. The 12 tracks on their debut are overflowed with passion and the love these four musicians have for playing music shines through each song.
This band is more unique than most bands in its category, lyrically and instrumentally. The lyrics were written intelligently and straight from the soul.
