Solemn Novena

Owls*

The Owls from Liverpool, UK. They do not yet have any recorded material out to purchase... Carl Cook is a lefty playing the Eastwood Ichiban Guitar. Their music is a treat and hopefully their first CD will be out later this year.
We’ve put an Owls track up online for people to download: http://owls.bandcamp.com/track/sound-of-the-call. Feel free to state that the Eastwood chiban was used on this track and that I feel it’s become an integral part of my guitar sound in Owls.
