Event Navigation
WoodSongs began in a small, humble recording studio behind a little cafe in Lexington, Kentucky. Aside from Michael Johnathon and the artists who appeared on the show, about 18 folks could squeeze into the cramped studio room, sitting on plastic chairs or pillows on the floor. We served home-made cookies and apple cider to entice our friends to show up for the Monday tapings. The idea was simple: to create a worldwide stage that would genuinely celebrate the passion and spirit of grassroots music and art. We wanted to
find that massive, global audience that didn’t care “what bin you’re in” or what manager you had or whether or not you were signed to a major label. Just that you are good. You believe in your own music. You are unique and different. And so, WoodSongs was born on a spring afternoon, We had one college radio station airing the show, a couple dozen friends packed into the hot studio … and the hope that, someday, maybe a second radio station might air our show.
