kc Posted April 22, 2008 Report Share Posted April 22, 2008 PJC presents: WOODHANDS(Paper Bag Records) BOCCE SLOW HAND MOTEM Plus DJ's : MAC & A.A.(No Standards) SATURDAY, MAY 3RD 19+, Doors open at 9pm, $8 http://www.woodhands.com http://www.myspace.com/woodhands http://www.myspace.com/thebocce http://www.myspace.com/slowhandmotem @ The Pepepr Jack Cafe 38 King William St. Hamilton (905)525-6666 http://www.pepperjackcafe.com Woodhands is an electro-pop duo with a relentlessly energetic live-show and a total disdain for anything but balls-to-the-wall, dirty, sexy dance parties. The brainchild of Dan Werb (vocals, synths, drum machines) and Paul Banwatt (drums, vocals), Woodhands has garnered national press in Canada and was tagged as one of 5 bands to watch in 2008 by Exclaim! Magazine. Eschewing laptops or any pre-recorded samples, the Woodhands boys create the music from scratch just like old-fashioned rock bands, liberally swiping the swagger of glam and the raw energy of punk along the way. Armed with a decidedly un-ironic keytar, dirty analog synths and complex but danceable beats, Woodhands are hell-bent on connecting with their audience and getting the room bouncing. Combine that with an exuberant and nerd-infused sexiness, and it’s no wonder they’ve been dubbed “the sex bomb Tom Jones was talking about… as close to a two-headed indie Timberlake as it gets†(Exclaim!, Dec 2007).
