The Wood Brothers in Wausau

The Wood Brothers are an American roots trio formed in 2004 by brothers Oliver Wood and Chris Wood. Their music draws on folk, blues, gospel, country and jazz, and their best-known records include Ways Not to Lose and The Muse, home to songs such as “Luckiest Man,” “Atlas” and “I Got Loaded.” In August 2016, the trio performed at Levon Helm Studios in Woodstock, New York, and the concert was released as Live at the Barn. The following summer they joined Tedeschi Trucks Band and Hot Tuna on the Wheels of Soul Tour, taking the group’s repertoire to outdoor amphitheatres around the United States. Their concerts use a three-piece format: Oliver Wood plays guitar and sings lead, Chris Wood handles upright and electric bass and vocals, and Jano Rix plays drums, keyboards and shuitar.
