Canadian Singer-songwriter
Throughout his distinguished career, Donovan Woods has built a devoted following who cling to the acclaimed songwriter’s every word. Never one to mince words, Woods is one of music’s most vulnerable storytellers and on his latest studio album, Donovan takes that a step further. Honest and unflinching, on 'Things Were Never Good If They’re Not Good Now', his seventh studio album, Woods takes a long look inside and isn’t necessarily thrilled with what he sees. For an artist who isn’t afraid to bear his soul, this is as emotionally gritty as he has ever been. Long known as a masterful storyteller, Woods is at his absolute best on 'Things Were Never Good If They’re Not Good Now'. Across the album’s 12 sparse, intimate songs, Woods finds himself reflecting on the ups and downs he has been through since 2020. His writing allowed him to open up and address the complexities of life that he has been going through. The album, he notes, serves as “a funeral to the life he was living.” For fans of Ruston Kelly, Phoebe Bridgers, Paul Simon and Gregory Alan Isakov.
