| Woodenwire is a middle Tennessee-based band with a great local following, and increasing national popularity. Their sound can be described using terms like “Outlaw, Americana, Southern, Traditional, Bluegrass, Folk, Jam, Driving, Witty, and Clever.” They know no enemies and have shared venues with bands from a wide variety of genres including Metal, Grunge, and Hip Hop. Audiences should never be surprised to see a collection of special guests at a Woodenwire show. Their up-beat groove remains the same, but because of these exciting changes in accompaniment, fans of the band (old and new) keep coming back for more. There are three founding members you can always expect to see; Travis Stock (Bass, Vocals, Harmonica), Mike Davenport (Drums), and Jed Watts (Lead Guitar, Vocals). Mike and Jed began writing, recording, and performing music together in when they met as room-mates at Middle Tennessee State. Mike had been drumming for the previous few years in the Alternative Rock band “Euforia,” based in Bristol, Virginia. Jed had played guitar in a high-school band “Sockemdog,” and with various bluegrass bands in the Northeast Georgia mountains. The two shifted through several potential band members over the next few years, making a lot of friends and co-writing partners, but they did not find the bass playing ‘glue’ to the band, Travis, until . Travis’ family in Ebensburg, Pennsylvania consists entirely of musicians who trained him in the ways of Outlaw Country, Folk, Classic Rock, and Bluegrass. Travis had spent the previous few years playing as a solo act with an acoustic guitar, but he did not hesitate to start playing bass in Woodenwire shows. The three then began writing the material that is most popular with fans today. Some of these favorites shared a co-writer named Richard Carpenter, who has been a professional drummer and singer/songwriter for decades, with hits by such artists as John Anderson, Tracy Lawerence, Tanya Tucker, Jerry Reed, and Eric Heatherly. Richard has played a valuable roll in providing professional advice and influencing the raw southern flavor of the band. Travis and Jed learned that their vocal harmonies complemented each other in unique ways and began playing off that. With two potential lead singers, the audience experiences an enriched vocal display. Beneath their lyrical abilities, their powerful stage presence, and their outstanding vocals, the band members are undeniably talented musicians. They have been used as the house band for the traveling Grand Ole’ Opry, have appeared as featured artists on a variety of albums, and record all their own parts when in the studio. In the fall of they began recording “Breaking Old Ground,” a studio album including the most popular songs from their live shows. While original in spirit, these boys also have a gift for performing covers, requested or inspired, that make dancers out of any audience. You may witness a hard-rocking Woodenwire show with distorted guitars, lap steel, and keys, or you might hear a dog-house bass, banjo, mandolin, and fiddle. Whatever the venue, whomever the crowd, Woodenwire guarantees an exciting performance and a great time to be had by all. |

Growing up performing at places like the Tulsa State Fair, Route Theater, V. F. W. Clubs, Cains Ballroom, The Oklahoma Opry and much more. At the ripe age of twelve he made his first television appearance and, by the time he was seventeen, had made his mark in his home town, by having his own radio show on Oklahoma's KREK,and performing on Green Country's KTUL Channel (Good Morning Oklahoma). After seeing Chad perform to a standing ovation at the Muskogee Civic Center, Grand Ole Opry star the late Del Reeves took Chad to Nashville and recorded demo's that led to a developmental recording deal with Mercury Records. Although originally brought to Nashville as a country prodigy, Chad rebelled against his southern roots and aimed his sights on blues, pop, and rock songwriting. Chad's brother, Travis, followed the lead, transforming degrees in Genres. Together they hit the club circuit and found great success. Over the past years, they have been critically aclaimed as one of the best local acts in Nashville. The crowds grew, the word spread, and as time approached, AOL's project, digitalcity , named them a hitpick and gave them a glowing reviews.

"Making music, and entertaining people is a love that I was born with, because I have been doing it all my life. I began performing in public at a very early age. Thanks to my dad, I had the opportunity to perform in bands, and shows all across the southern region. He eventually " stuck me out front", and encouraged me to pursue a career in music. I became part of the band when I was six. I moved to music city when I was , and have been working on all kinds of projects from country to pop/rock. Now days, I work with my brother Travis T g songs, and performing live. Travis over the years became not only my partner in music, but a wonderful producer, musician, songwriter, and engineer to work with. Through the wisdom of my family, and many great friends, I have been blessed with a wonderful journey, that I call my life! These inspirations flow through me, and take the form of music. My current project " Soul Repair" has been a spiritual journey for me, and I invite you to listen, and find a bit of yourself in it!" |
