Calgary, AB's masters of straight ahead riff-rock wizardry
WOODHAWK announce their 2018 Canadian "Magnetic North Tour" in
support of their latest full length album "Beyond The Sun" released
April last year and recently named the #12 most played release on the Canadian
College Radio Top 20 Loud Charts for 2017 (Source: Earshot). The tour will see
the trio trek across Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba
plus performing for the first time in Ontario
and Quebec
(dates listed below).
The band comments:
"We're excited to be hitting the road again and heading
out East this time. We haven't played past Winnipeg yet and we're stoked to finally make
it out there."
WOODHAWK's debut album "Beyond The Sun" was
produced by the band with Jesse Gander (Bison, Japandroids) to follow their
2014 self-titled EP. Made of equal parts
1970's Birmingham
and a myriad of 21st century heavy who’s who, WOODHAWK are purveyors of
riff-centric rock and roll. Capable and original, the band is able to craft
anthemic fist-pumping songs while forgoing tired stoner rock clichés. With time
travel tested themes of science fiction, swords and sorcery, the band’s lyrics
are born from snowy winters, hot practice spaces and pages of dog-eared
paperbacks. While the musicianship reinforces recollections of Black Sabbath,
modern influences that have helped you smash air drums or highway speed limits
are undeniably present.
'Beyond The Sun' album stream available on Bandcamp at

The album is available on digital, vinyl and CD.
