New Wooden Wand Project

If you don't know the extremely prolific Wooden Wand and His Various Members yet, well, you should. With over 30 related releases since 2003 on a variety of labels, they're becoming hard to ignore. Many of these older releases are getting reissues on Troubleman Unlimited or 5RC, and are worth finding along with their newer releases.

The newest Wooden Wand project is Wooden Wand and The Sky High Band. The Sky High Band features Clay Ruby, leader of the up and coming psych-folk group Davenport, and Jewelled Antler associates Glenn Donaldson and Shayde Sartin. If you're into psych-folk these names should already have you on the edge of your seat, and rightfully so. Although very little information has been released about this new project, it seems to promise greatness already. The release date is May 2006 on Kill Rock Stars, with no title or other information available yet. Wooden Wand will also have a new 2xLP/CD called Gypsy Sessions in February on 5RC.
