Missing The Ferry are a Luton-based band comprised of three brothers and their two best friends. They perform a variety of Irish and Irish-influenced music as well as writing original songs about identity, belonging and Luton.

​

They released their debut EP, Lonely Londoners, in June 2024 which is available on Bandcamp, all digital platforms and CD. Their last release ‘Luton You’re A Lady’ is a love song to their much-maligned town. 

​

With inspiration as diverse as Brendan Shine, The Pogues and The Stone Roses their mission is to get people dancing, singing, and thinking.
