WOODWARD - ...But Your Kids Are Gonna Love It

In a time when emo and pop-punk acts rule the airwaves, there`s a new sound in Detroit. Driven by memorable melodies and uplifting harmonies, Woodward`s catchy and exciting new brand of indie rock has taken the Detroit scene by storm. Named after Woodward Avenue, home of the famous Dream Cruise and landmark to all of the Detroit area, Woodward has tapped into something completely new and exciting; a brand of music that is distinctly recognizable and full of personality. "Drawing on sonic influences that transcend the 1970s and 1980s FM Rock genre, Woodward has built a modern sound that is equally welcoming to young rock fans and their parents (perhaps even young grandparents). This is a quintessential rock and roll album. Starting out with `All Over (Washed Out)`, Woodward leads off sounding like Billy Joel singing with the Ramones. The fun isn`t over there. `Find The Words`sounds like it might have been lifted from an early Queen album. What makes this album such a treat is that even when Woodward sounds like someone else, they are distinctively themselves...Woodward delivers a set of hook-heavy modern retro-rock songs that are a sonic pleasure. The songwriting is top-notch, the vocals are perfectly fit to the songs, and the harmonies stand up with the likes of Queen or Styx...But Your Kids Are Gonna Love It gets my highest rating, and then some." - Wildy`s World blog.

"A testament to the distinctive character of this band and is sure to propel them into the ears of folks far and wide. One might hear the inherent commercial appeal that such a fun, tight and hook-driven band like this one has, as Woodward has carved out a sound all their own. Their combination of late 50s and early 60s melody with mid 90s ska-ish rhythm and attitude is undeinably unique, as Woodward have carved out a sound all their own. One might hear the inherent commercial appeal that such a fun, tight and hook driven band like this one has. "~ Real Detroit Weekly. "Creating pleasant harmonies and catchy pop influenced rock, Woodward use their 90s alt-rock influences to meld something unpretentious and far from somber"-Detroit Buzz. Recommended!
