Woodenhead, USA

News: I thought this band were inactive and I'd already archived this page. But they're back with a new live album celebrating their 43rd (?!) anniversary.


Location: New Orleans, Louisiana

Overview: Starting as a relatively normal fusion band of the late 70s, Woodenhead continued to up the energy level as they got older. A fine, and yet still undiscovered band.
