Acoustic folk band Woodwork's sound ranges from ethereal traditional harmonies to original hard-hitting political anthems, garnished with a score of arcane and modern instruments. Our repertoire features many original compositions, Celtic tunes and songs, Byrdsy folk-rock, harmonica blues, and covers of our favorite folk singer-songwriters.
We are the "house band" at The Peace Abbey in Sherborn, MA (www.peaceabbey.org), and actively seek to do benefits for groups in greater Boston working to promote peace and social justice.
We welcome feedback about our music. Please leave us a comment or email us at: dandick AT comcast DOT net.
