Stornoway is playing at The Waiting Room tonight…

No, I didn’t make it down to The Thermals last night, as much as I wanted to. Deadlines. Looks like I’ll have to wait ’til Maha to see them live.

But there’s nothing’s stopping me from going to see Stornoway tonight at The Waiting Room. Stornoway is a British indie folk band formed in 2006 in the Cowley area of Oxford, UK. Having self-released three CD EPs, the band signed to super-indie label 4AD in March 2010. Their music is very poppy indie stuff, they’ve been compared to These United States and Jake Bugg. Opening is Oklahoma City band Horse Thief, who records on Bella Union. $10, 9 p.m.
