I was a little surprised when I started to write the Strand of Oaks tag and it didn't auto populate. Have I really been enjoying their latest album Heal so much and I've never posted about them? I guess so. Oversight.

I caught Strand of Oaks live at Toronto's Horseshoe Tavern on December 1. The short review - They were amazing and are an instant addition to my favourite bands. The music, the songs, the musicianship, the personalities all shine on stage and I feel so lucky that I got to experience it and photograph it.

My next step is to dive deeper into the Strand of Oaks discography and see what I've been missing.
