STORNOWAY

Event information

Officially the brainiest group ever, Stornoway's big music worked a treat".' THE INDEPENDENT Wychwood Festival review, June 08

Rising alternative folk pop band Stornoway need little introduction, already touted as one of the most prolific and talented acts on the local scene. The band consists of an Ornithologist, an occasional Russian translator, a South African Pirate Captain, and a human radio. None of the band have ever been to Stornoway. But Brian once got to within 37 miles of it.

Ivan Campo, the super Spaniard with the big hair, shares his name - with a nu-folk ensemble who will take you on a journey through the mysteries of their minds. Hitchcock and The Beatles’ White Album are just some of Ivan Campo’s preoccupations. Characterised by a playful suspense, their songs are as likely to be about the unsolved death of Alexander Litvinenko as they are about love and loss.
Ivan Campo have shared stages with Jeff Lewis, Misty's Big Adventure, Jay Jay Pistolet, Dufus, Jim Noir and more.
Their next E.P entitled 'Super 7' will be released on 30th March 2009.

Plus night-folkstersThe Vatican Cellars - "..finitely drawn morsels of tear stained hurting lo-fi folk bruisers" and eccentric Sacramento psychedelic power-pop singer Anton Barbeau. "Prolific, pretentious, precocious, intelligent, quirky, nasal, amusing, annoying to some, pop genius to others, and never ever boring..." Pop Matters.
