Four Chords of Wood is an energetic group of talented performers based in Victoria British Columbia, Canada. Known for their love of hard driving Bluegrass music, FCoW's music comprises rich vocal harmonies and strong instrumental accompaniment. The members are all experienced performers grounded in stage presence and audience rapport. The group's professionalism and talent have brought numerous requests for appearances at clubs, private functions and public festivals. Although a relatively new combination, Four Chords of Wood is already viewed as an emerging powerhouse Bluegrass band.
Four Chords of Wood appreciate the roots and traditions of Bluegrass both from the performers and audience’s perspective. They gather around a single microphone, lay down a solid rhythm with their acoustic instruments and dress it up with passionate lead vocals, tight harmonies and exciting instrumental solos.
Expect to hear waltzes, blues, sentimental numbers, fiddle tunes, gospel and some foot to the floor ravers. Expect to see some fancy footwork as each soloist steps up to the mic and then make way for the next.
But most of all, expect to be entertained !
