Seven Days: Vermont's Independent Voice

Forest for the Trees

Brooklyn’s Woods prove that experimental sound collage and folk music are not mutually exclusive, even if the two idioms seem at odds. The key is that the band crafts pitch-perfect pop songs, which anchor the material to earth amid towering flights of freakout fancy. Touring behind their acclaimed new album, At Echo Lake, Woods stop by the Monkey House in Winooski this Thursday. MV & EE and DJ Disco Phantom open.
