| Once a Vision, From Woods – “Tambourine Light” | June 6, 2014 |
Will Schube owns 4% of Pied Piper If at this point, after so many good full-lengths, and equally inspiring non-album singles (a label many bands use to release not-up-to-par work into the world) you don’t listen to Woods, you probably never will. But for fans of the New York neo-psychsters, “Tambourine Light”—their latest non-album single […]
| Woods – With Light and With Love | April 18, 2014 |

| Going Back to Cali: The Rustic Jams of Woods | July 2, 2012 |
The Douglas Martin sabbatical sadly endures, but the bands that his column has championed stay scheming. You might remember Woods from such albums as Echo Lake and Sun & Shade, or front man Jeremy Earl’s work in turning Woodsist into the Loud Records of the late 00s underground psych scene. Sorta. In this scenario, the […]
