There is a wood you can visit. It is the Dire Wood. Fraught with danger and filled with ferns it is.
Dire Wood is so close to being so familiar, yet undeniably unique. While their name conjures up thoughts of something stale, stiff and petrified, the sound is anything but, bouncing through light and breezy moods, like the wind blown sounds of a carnival in spring.Times of Acadiana
Our combined experience in breathing is something hovering near one hundred forty years. It is fairly clear that breathing for this many years means only one thing: we can do it.
Dire Wood began in 2004 in a downtown rent-house in Lafayette, LA. J Burton and Chad Viator had a history of making good music together, and before long they were filling the local dives with their chilling melody and haunting counterpoint. The deeds of this duo were well received, but soon the project took on more members.
In March of 2005 Ryan DeJean and Frank Kincel were enlisted and the band recorded a 5 song eponymous EP. The idea quickly grew from the single cell simplicity of a bare-bones acoustic act into a full-bodied, complex, and electrically-powered creation. They self-released their first full-length Stand at the Edge and Listen in April 2006. Its mix of jangle-pop, romantic dissolution, and alt-country heartache secured Dire Wood a spot as a band of note in South Louisiana.
Dire Wood, now joined by vocalist Tiffany Lamson, released their second full-length The Escape in the summer of 2008. The Escape earned steady rotation on college radio stations all over the US, and got Dire Wood some licenscing contracts with a few cable shows.
The band recorded the third album Little Band in A Big House in January of 2009.
This album focuses more on the raw and rough qualities of the band. Check out the TIMES INTERVIEW blog for a lot more info on the new album.

Ok. So, I listened to the new songs and then I listened to the other, older songs.
I like your voice. I think it is amazing, and it's the first time I have thought that about a track(s) I heard through SpaceSpace. And also the tiny, tinny speakers on my laptop.
