Stornoway was a British alternative indie folk band who formed in 2006 in the Cowley Road area of Oxford, UK. The band consisted of singer and guitarist Brian Briggs, multi-instrumentalists Jon Ouin and Oli Steadman, and the latter's brother Rob Steadman on drums. The band was often joined by trumpeter Adam Briggs and violinist Rahul Satija.
In October 2016 the band announced that they would be splitting up after a farewell tour during spring 2017. They played their final show on 12 March 2017.

AD Conkers shining on the ground A The air is cooler ED And i feel like i just started uni AD Walking backwards to my van A You're at your window AD And i'm tripping every time i think of
ADA Lying in your attic ADA I can feel the static DEDA The storm has broken Heavens open
AD Send my body out to work A But leave my senses ED In orbit over south-east London AD Wind the window down and pinch A Me on the shoulder ED else i'll be driving off to dream of
ADA Lying in your attic ADA I can feel the static DEDA The storm has broken Heavens open
ADADA So electrifying Oh i'm nearly flying D Lost my heart between EDA the sheets of lightening
-BRIDGE INSTRUMENTAL PASSAGE WITH BRASS
AD I've been singing you this song A Inside a bubble ED Been Zorbing through the streets of Cowley AD We were always meant to be A Zorbing together DED And i think it's high time we started ADA Lying in your attic ADA I can feel the static DED The storm is breaking windows shaking
ADADA So electrifying Oh i'm nearly flying
Lost my heart between EDA the sheets of lightening
ADA Lying in your attic ADA I can feel the static DED The storm has broken Heavens open ADADA So electrifying Oh i'm nearly flying D Lost my heart between EDA the sheets of lightening
