The Deep Dark Woods
It was the summer of 2005 when Saskatoon, Saskatchewan's The Deep Dark Woods began shaping their sound, drawing from influences dating back to the earliest recorded folk music. The mixing of traditional folk music with rock and roll, alt-country and psychedelia takes their powerful original material from eerie gospel numbers to upbeat murder songs, covering plenty of ground in between. After only a handful of rehearsals the DDW played their first headlining show at a local club. Less than two years later they have shared the stage with The Sadies, Magnolia Electric Co.
