Biography
Calgary, Canada
Woodpigeon’s origins are found with primary song-writer Mark Andrew Hamilton writing songs in Edinburgh, Scotland. At this time, the band was named “Woodpigeon Divided By Antelope Equals Squirrel”, and consisted of Hamilton alongside Steve Kaye and Malcolm Benzie. Hamilton states that he “was far too scared to ever sing, so all we ever played was a couple of stupid instrumentals and our only “performance” was in the streets of Edinburgh.” Eventually, Hamilton returned to Canada, and started afresh, with the shortened band name, Woodpigeon. Other band members fell in place, with Hamilton noting that: “the way it came together was simple: friends started hearing my songs and offering their services.” By now Woodpigeon consists of eight core members: Mark Hamilton (vocals, guitar), Kenna Burima (piano, vocals), Michael Gratton (bass), Annalea Sordi (accordion, flute, vocals), Daren Powell (drums), Peter Moersch (electric guitar, vocals), Foon Yap (violin), AJ Benoit (vocals).

Seen him solo Live twice at the Cluny in Newcastle, England. Really great performance both times, he's a one-man band. Wish he would tour with a band though and do some of his recorded songs in full glory, brass, and violins and all! Can't believe how underplayed he still is.

Woodpigeon still has one of the best albums of the year--and "as the ship goes down" is probably song of the year, at least in my book. Epic.

We gave Woodpigeon a disposable camera at End Of The Road festival and let him take pictures of whatever he felt like! You can see the results here - pretty funny! http://www.goldflakepaint.co.uk/?p=1411
