The WOO!worths

Thanks for stopping by. This is the bit where you learn about The Woo!worths. Two friends, obsessed with music and a love for making new sounds, formed the band in 2006. They compose music which has many ever-changing influences and believe experimentation is at the heart of all great Pop music. They use samplers and computers to help get the sounds out of their heads but are far from being electro-geek-knob twiddlers and their songs are mostly written on acoustic guitar.
