Formed in Brooklyn in 2004, Woods have matured into a true independent institution, reliably emerging every few years with new music that "grows towards the latest sky." Woods is made up of co-founders Jeremy Earl and Jarvis Taveniere, joined by John Andrews, and a striking extended family of collaborators. Their music is characterized by its rustic and psychedelic sound, blending elements of folk, rock, and lo-fi indie. Their latest record, Perennial, is the sound of a band on the edge of their 20th anniversary and still finding bold new ways to sound like (and challenge) themselves.
