From the imaginary intersection of a Coney Island side street and a Carolina dirt road come songs of longing, loneliness, and loss -- as well as acceptance, courage, and renewal. Marc Barnhill and The Sorely Missed present fragile ruminations on relationships and tough examinations of personal responsibility, distilled into a rootsy blend of traditional folk, urban Americana and literate singer-songwriter music.
As a staple of New York City's acoustic live music scene, Marc Barnhill participated in numerous songwriter series, appeared as a featured artist on local and web radio, and lent musical support to various charitable and cultural events, developing a reputation for insightful lyrics and soulful performances and drawing praise for his combination of melodic accessibility and literary craftsmanship. Together with Robert Gelman (guitar), Mark Altman (trumpet,
vocals), and other musicians, he continues to play
regularly throughout the New York area.
The songs of The Sorely Missed chart the tensions of
the human experience: hope and heartache, resignation
and celebration, the momentum of change and the pull
of the past. The band's interplay of Americana
elements captures "moments of emotion" and writes them
large, projecting interior exploration as mythic
landscape -- an alternative heartland where "fences set
you free."
