About Stornoway

Stornoway was an indie folk band formed in 2006 in Oxford, England. The group, named after the Scottish town, was comprised of Brian Briggs, Jonathan Ouin, Oli Steadman, and Rob Steadman. Known for their rich harmonies and unique instrumentation, they gained recognition with their debut album, 'Beachcomber's Windowsill,' released in 2010.

Stornoway's music often explores themes of unfulfilled longing desire, regret of separation, and the feeling of wasting time. These recurring motifs resonate deeply with listeners, capturing the bittersweet nuances of life and relationships. Their evocative lyrics and melancholic melodies create a reflective and emotive listening experience.
