As an antidote to this morning’s mournful ramblings about Isla Vista<\/strong> and Hurray for the Riff Raff’s St. Roch Blues<\/em><\/strong>, we offer up flipside solace in the uplift of three songs by the great Brooklyn band Woods<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n

We were first won over by the jangle-psych-pop of Woods<\/strong> in 2010. It seems like just yesterday that Woods<\/strong> came out and stole the Jensens Backstage<\/strong><\/a> from much-loved hipsters Kurt Vile<\/strong> and Real Estate,<\/strong> in retrospect one of the best triple-bills ever pulled together in recent Santa Barbara (thanks, again, to Club Mercy<\/strong><\/a>!).\u00a0 Woods<\/strong> was further emblazoned in our ears with their superb set at the 2011 Hardly Strictly Bluegrass Festival<\/a><\/strong>.\u00a0 Then in 2012 the band released one of our favorite songs of all of 2012, Cali In A Cup <\/strong><\/a>, which featured three of our favorite things:\u00a0 California, a cup (we assume glass?) and some musical sunshine.<\/p>\n

In April Woods<\/strong> released their latest album,\u00a0With Light And With Love<\/em><\/strong>, to deserved critical acclaim (even the Pitchforkers gave the album a 7.9 rating).\u00a0 Now comes the news that Woods will release on July 8th release a new 7\u2033 single<\/strong> that includes two non-album tracks, Tambourine Light<\/strong><\/em> and Tomorrow\u2019s Only Yesterday<\/strong><\/em>.\u00a0 Listen below to the sanguine Tambourine Light<\/strong><\/em>, followed by two superb songs off of With Light and With Love<\/strong>, and go buy the single HERE<\/strong><\/a> and the latest album HERE<\/strong><\/a>.\u00a0 These are sunny, warming songs we hope will bring you back into the light.<\/p>\n

Woods<\/strong> will begin a new tour soon and is coming to Cali in August<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n
