New Tunes from Stornoway
I’m really surprised that we haven’t heard too much on this side of the pond about Stornoway. Â They’ve got everything we love about our own bands, not to mention Brian Briggs’ incredible set of pipes. Â Luckily, this single has come to us from 4AD, and it will be on the band’s debut album Beachcomber’s Windowsill. Â This song begins with percussion and gentle strumming before Briggs decides he wants to carry the rest of the song with his voice (the music stays, but his voice dominates). Â If this is what we can expect, then huge things are expected from this band. Â Check out their album on May 24th.

Question:
How do I get my hands on Stornoway’s cd when it comes out?
It’s not on iTunes in the US and for some reason I cannot purchase music from the UK iTunes store.
Any ideas.
Jimmy-
I don’t think it will be released on the US iTunes store until May 24th, and I haven’t seen a leak or anything. I guess we’ll just have to keep our hands crossed that it does make it over here on the due date. I guess you can maybe try Amazon once the album is released too, if iTunes isn’t carrying it.
