Woodhands is an electro-pop duo with a relentlessly energetic live-show and a total disdain for anything but balls-to-the-wall, dirty, sexy dance parties. The brainchild of Dan Werb (vocals, synths, drum machines) and Paul Banwatt (drums, vocals), Woodhands has garnered national press in Canada and was tagged as one of 5 bands to watch in 2008 by Exclaim! Magazine. Eschewing laptops or any pre-recorded samples, the Woodhands boys create the music from scratch just like old-fashioned rock bands, liberally swiping the swagger of glam and the raw energy of punk along the way. Armed with a decidedly un-ironic keytar, dirty analog synths and complex but danceable beats, Woodhands are hell-bent on connecting with their audience and getting the room bouncing. Combine that with an exuberant and nerd-infused sexiness, and it’s no wonder they’ve been dubbed “the sex bomb Tom Jones was talking about… as close to a two-headed indie Timberlake as it gets” (Exclaim!, Dec 2007).
Heart Attack is the first album from Woodhands on Paper Bag Records. There are ten songs on it – nine absolute bangers and the one requisite slow jam, for artistic cred. Songs include club anthem “I Wasn’t Made for Fighting,” electro-pop assault “Dancer,” and album closer “Sailboats,” featuring guest vocals from Paper Bag Records artist Laura Barrett.
