The Woodlands

This morning I’ve played two songs over and over again, both from the indie folk-pop band The Woodlands, who sent them over to me late yesterday evening. These two songs have stolen all my attention, – like nothing else matters right now. Rare…

Their music fills me with a nice, calm feeling, – it leaves a tiny smile on my face and plants seeds for small thoughts in my head. It sounds optimistic and hopeful, but with a flavour of meloancholy. “The music is like the light of innocence that does not seek isolation or hibernation. It dances with gloom, not upon it. It does not intrude, it intervenes”, the press release says, and for once, a press release gives a good definition of a band’s music. Because this is just how The Woodlands’ music is.

The Woodlands are Hannah and Samuel Robertson, wife and husband, from Portland, USA. Her hushed vocals remind me of another favourite of mine, Kathryn Williams, and that’s a good thing.

You can buy their music via cdbaby, both on cd and mp3, or via iTunes or emusic. After listening through the whole album a couple of times now, I can tell you it’s just as good as the two songs I first heard. You can also listen to it on Spotify. Wonderful music!
