Behind The Woodpile
- Behind The Woodpile consists of three seasoned musicians that are all singer songwriters with experience playing in multiple bands. The sound is East Coast meets Motown meets Bluegrass meets The Blues and Pop/Rock all combined into a high-calibre professional blend of three part harmonies and beautiful instrumentation. The band plays as a trio but can expand to four or five piece. Behind The Woodpile is a perfect fit for a variety of situations from background music to full sit down concerts.
