Woods

Add a new dimension to your Australia Day celebrations with a complex, melodic fusion of Americana and krautrock.

Overview

After releasing an album every year for seven years, Woods are bringing their dark, artful, occasionally mystical folk-rock-pop to Australia for the first time this month. Their latest album, Bend Beyond, maintains the spirit of spontaneity that has characterised their music from the outset, but the songwriting is more sophisticated and more deeply affecting than ever before. "As blood drips from bone, can you feel me?" questions lead vocalist Jeremy Earl on the song, "Is it Honest?"

The live shows promise prolonged improvisations; eerie soundscapes, involving distortion and surreal noise experimentation; and, of course, Earl's magnetic falsetto. Since their inception, the critics have been comparing Woods to the Grateful Dead, as well as krautrock groups like Can and Neu!

Appearing at Goodgod on Australia Day, Woods will be supported by Black Zeroes + Camperdown and Out.
