Big thanks to Alison Lilly for featuring us on the musical section of her podcast, Faith, Fern & Compass.  This week’s episode discusses biodiversity and its essential role in maintaining the health, vitality and interconnection of the natural world, as well as our place within it.  The podcast also explores how art and science can work together to inspire both hearts and minds to care more deeply about the planet and its creatures.  Do check it out!

Huge thank you to everyone who has pledged!  We have reached 20% of our goal and are so grateful for your support.  Check out our Pledge Music page to see new updates; the inspiration behind some of the tracks on the new album and a preview of the title track, “Whales and Roses.”

Dearest Sunbeams and Sirens,

We Are The Woods are wicked pleased to announce the official launch of our Pledge Music campaign, Let’s Make a Record!

With this campaign we hope to fund the completion and the release of our new album, Whales And Roses. We’ve been having a blast recording with Jeremy Sklarsky at Threshold Recording Studios in NYC and we can’t wait to debut some of the all star tracks for you on our pledge page. We made a transcendent gem of a film to welcome you to said pledge page and we recommend you view it immediately and twice a day if necessary until you find yourself right with the world in all ways. Tyler Beckwith was our house film editor and director for this project so feel free to aim your lasers of praise and adulation in his direction. In addition to this exciting short film, you will also be able to preorder the new record and place your bid on an awesome range of seriously dope exclusives and woods merchandise. All of these contributions will go towards funding our cause and rescue the planet. “How could that be?!” you ask. Answer: because 10% of all the money we raise will go to 350.org, a pivotal organization that’s building a global movement to solve the climate crisis.

We’re very excited to build this record with you

And to have a big giant party when it’s all said and done

And several medium sized parties along the way.

Let’s Make a Record!

We Love You!

What a lovely post about us on the webpage for Threshold Studios NYC .  It has been an amazing ride!  Big thanks to Jeremy and James.

We Are The Woods create a truly inspiring record with Producer Jeremy Sklarsky at Threshold Recording Studios NYC!

Our studio time with We Are the Woods is coming to a close shortly. It has been an absolute blast having these awesome artists in the studio. The record we are nearing completion is a solid mix of folky acoustic and rocking electric sounds. The music is a whole lot of fun and there were always plenty of healthy snacks and an assortment of teas on hand. Somehow, while geeking out over Harry Potter, the Hunger Games, and other various middle school literary obsessions, we managed to put together a pretty fantastic record:)

check the Threshold jukebox for audio shortly!

I still really love this song

and the post its I made for the video

We Are The Woods: Nature’s Candy

—by Roz Smith, September 21, 2011

We Are The Woods have a haunting yet enchanting sound that is provided by two folky females and one country gentleman: Jessica Murphy, Marcia Webb and drummer Tyler Beckwith. Their album, Eight Belles, is full of heart-aching, folk pop that entangles the listener with their soulful roots and refuses to let them go. The group will be performing on the second stage of the Rockwood Music Hall on Sept. 24. The show is free, 21+ and doors are at 6:30 p.m., with the band going on at about 7 p.m.

We Are The Woods has been nominated by The Deli mgazine for NYC’s artist of the month.  Vote for us here!
