New outlet for local musician CD sales

It wouldn't take very long to list everyone in Huntington that is actively involved in supporting and spreading the local music scene, but Ian Thornton is definitely near the top.

Thornton has been pushing the idea of selling local musician CD's for the past few months, and he has now kicked it off. WVRockScene already did a lengthy interview and profile of this, so here is an abstract and link to their article:

Artist, Ian Thorton, formerly of the Lovecoats, and currently booking for The Shamrock Pub and playing for Whirling Dervish, is selling CD's of local musicians at the Shamrock Pub. In addition, he is only playing local music in the backroom of the Pub. CD's will be about $8. This local champion of the Huntington Music Scene put his own money forward for this project, so make sure you support him!
