Woods released At Echo Lake, the band’s fifth album, earlier this month, and in honor of this momentous occasion will be heading out on a fairly concise North American tour. With five shows in California alone, it’s obvious there’s some serious left-coast love going on; I suppose it’s one place where lo-fi psych-folk will always be welcome in large quantities. If you aren’t on the West Coast, the only other option is New York. I guess the rest of us will have to be happy with playing the record at home.
Oh, and there’s some other great acts tagging along, so get your butts out of the house — it’s spring, readers!
