About Donovan Woods

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 forthcoming studio album, Donovan takes that a step further. Honest and unflinching, on Things Were Never Good If They’re Not Good Now, his upcoming 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.

About Hayden

For over 25 years Hayden has been making music on his own terms and on his own schedule. The Polaris Prize and JUNO nominee has produced, engineered and mixed most of his records at home, creating a world of his own, exploring themes ranging from love lost and found to bear maulings and home invasions. Hayden recently released Are We Good, his long-anticipated 9th full length album that was JUNO nominated for Adult Alternative Album of the Year. He is also the co-founder of Dream Serenade, an annual benefit concert at Toronto’s Massey Hall for children with exceptionalities and their families established in 2014.
