The Woods aren’t just a band; they’re a place where genres and generations overlap, blending the three-part harmonies of 1970s folk-rock with the hooks of modern-day country music. The result is a polished sound that’s both fresh and familiar, created by a trio of Nashville-based singers, songwriters, and instrumentalists who breathe new life into old-school influences.
On their upcoming debut EP Nowhere Is Somewhere, bandmates Dan O’Rourke, Raquel Cole, and Leland Rooney showcase not only the writing chops that sent their first single, “World’s On Fire,” into the Top 50 on the Music Row Country Breakout Chart, but also the stacked vocals and entwined guitarmonies that have earned the trio comparisons to acts like The Eagles and Fleetwood Mac. Produced by Grammy-winning producer Blake Chancey (The Dixie Chicks, Little Big Town) and recorded in the wake of The Woods’ arena tour with Tim McGraw, Nowhere Is Somewhere serves as a reintroduction to one of Nashville’s most promising exports.
