Love Is Love
WOODS is a great band. Once you hear them, you shake your head and say, ‘how can a band be this damned talented?” Sounding like Santana with a mix of Ethiopian jazz and psychedelia with some of the best harmonies you’ve ever heard, this band has it all. Comprised of Jeremy Earl – vocals, guitars, percussion; Jarvis Taveniere – bass, guitar; Aaron Neveu – drums, percussion; John Andrews – piano, organs, wurlitzer; Alec Spiegelman – sax, flute; and Cole Kamen-Green – trumpet, you can hear the Age of Aquarius in every note. This is true world music. I love this band. Listen to them harmonize; you seriously will never be the same again. These are voices to lift you to heaven. And the guitars: amazing. With the wurlitzer, winds, and brass in the background, the stairway to heaven starts here.
