The Woodshedders explore the boundaries of traditional acoustic music, and bring forward an array of influences including Swing, Old-Time, Bluegrass, Rhythm & Blues, and especially the Hot Club Jazz of Django Reinhardt. A genuinely charming sound is rendered, and a host of creative songs are delivered forth featuring poetic lyrics, unique vocals and harmonies, and stellar musicianship. The repertoire completes by honoring and evoking the heroes of music past while still defying age and genre.
The Woodshedders consist of Dwayne Brooke (guitar, vocals), Ryan Mayo (upright bass, vocals), Stuart Orser (guitar, vocals), Jesse Schultzaberger (drums, skiffle trap, vocals), and David VanDeventer (fiddle, vocals), with special appearances by Aimee Curl (vocals, upright bass), and Morgan Morrison (vocals).
