Wovenhand is a band led by dedicated life-musician and lyricist, David Eugene Edwards. Over the last two decades, his prolific work in both Wovenhand and the legendary 16 Horsepower has influenced and inspired a generation of musicians throughout the expansive alternative music world.

Wovenhand cannot be described in traditional terms. Their sound is an organic, weavework of neo-folk, post rock, punk, old-time, and alternative sounds. All coming together as a vehicle for David's soulful expression and constant spiritual self exploration. Sometimes sad and sorrowed and at other times uplifting, Wovenhand are always unforgettable in spirit and sound.

"Refractory Obdurate" is the latest album from Wovenhand. Joining David on this album are longtime percussionist Ordy Garrison, along with musicians Chuck French and Neil Keener (Planes Mistaken For Stars, Git Some).

"Refractory Obdurate" is a moving masterwork that shows Wovenhand exploring louder roots hinted at on prior albums. As they maintain their melodious course, "Good Shepherd", "Field of Hedon", and "Hiss", stomp forth with a newly amplified punk rock heart. While "The Refractory", "Salome", and "Obdurate Obscura" each ascend epically into a multi-layered haze. Ten songs in all, "Refractory Obdurate" plays as a beautifully crafted patchwork that transcends genres and expectation; a true artistic achievement, that only Wovenhand could offer.

Lyrics:

Any ground will do to bury
One the earth does not anticipate
Drinking in the spirit wide shouldered
Wide mouth perfect mason
The no good thing in me
The seller of the Sun
The cast down mosaic
The lawless one
The shakers a shamble

A standing fire ever doth intercede
Rip the roof off and lower me down
Forever in my time of need

Son of the foaming sea
Her kiss just three days away
From me
Nevertheless
Are we not His witness
Nevertheless

This thing I have known
He likes it cedar wood made
Sealed with pitch
The many rooms inside
Come on soothsayer
Hey one bull remains
He sees red six He has hated
Yeah even seven
Lying in wait
In the shadow dim lit
Ascended on high
Taking captivity captive my audience
Do you hear what I hear
Way up in the sky little lamb
I stand corrected
The refractory may rest
In the shadow dim lit
We remember one bull remains
Way up in the sky lamb
Yea even seven

Any ground will do to bury it
The no good thing in me
The seller of the Sun
The cast down mosaic
The lawless one
Forever my time of need come
