Yarn Owl

Comprised of four seemingly diligent college students, Yarn Owl makes the grade

Self described as a combination of Explosions in the Sky post-rock and Beatles-era pop, Yarn Owl is just that. They met in college, in a small town, in Eastern Washington. Formed in late 2007, Yarn Owl has been steadily gaining notoriety, even though their live shows are few and far between, and they have barely crossed state lines to play. They may be getting noticed because of bassist Tim Meinig’s musical history (he used to drum for Band of Horses). Or they may be getting noticed because they are good musicians. But they don’t care either way. Right now, the most important thing for them is to finish college. They are very serious about their education. Admirable, no?

Yes, definitely. And more power to them, because they make great music. As long as they continue to do that, I don’t mind which comes first, the music or the education.
