BIO:

From the small town of Pullman, WA four became one as Yarn Owl emerged in the autumn of 2007. Meeting through the college radio station KZUU 90.7 FM, Javier Suarez, Tim Meinig (Band of Horses), Tyler Armour, and Ted Powers meld the pop sensibilities of the 60’s and 70’s with a twist of modern indie flare. Although coming from the wheat fields of nowhere, Yarn Owl has established a solid fan base and played with some well known bands in its short existence including touring with the The Helio Sequence and opening for the following bands: The Grand Archives, Fruit Bats, Mt St Helens Vietnam Band, Women, Sera Cahoone, Low vs Diamond, LAKE, The Most Serene Republic, Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, and many more. Yarn Owl has also appeared at Seattle’s Folklife, Birds on a Wire music festival, The Cherry City Music festival, and many Universities.

The band is constantly working on recording new material and recently put out a cassette tape through California based label Leftist Nautical Antiques. This 7 song tape entitled “Tiny Dots” features some of the best work from the band. Yarn Owl is currently unraveling a full length album set to release in the fall of 2010. Stay tuned as the band continues to tour and put out new music.

From the Press

Yarn Owl has gained a reputation as one of the top folk-pop bands in the area and is a frequent opener at the Empyrean when Northwest indie bands pass through. — Isamu Jordan, The Inlander
