Woods - Bend Beyond


Today we continue with some folk rock, now with a bit more squeaking in the wheels and presents the American folk rock band "Woods", a lo-fi folk-pop band from Brooklyn, which formed in 2005.

The band's membership now includes singer-guitarist Jeremy Earl, tape-effects technician G. Lucas Crane, bassist Kevin Morby, and multi-instrumentalist Jarvis Taveniere.



Woods have released five albums, the latest being Bend Beyond. Pitchfork Media reviewed one of their previous albums, Songs of Shame, giving the band its "Best New Music" designation and described the sound as "a distinctive blend of spooky campfire folk, lo-fi rock, homemade tape collages, and other noisy interludes, all anchored by deceptively sturdy melodies."

Singer-guitarist and founder Jeremy Earl also runs the rising Brooklyn label Woodsist, for whom the band releases their work.

Todays tune is the title track from seventh and latest album "Bend Beyond", released in September 2012, this clip is filmed at Storm King, New Windsor, NY on May 6, 2012.
