Bedroom pop artist Woody showcases various facets of his artistry...
24 · 03 · 2025
Rising star in bedroom pop, Woody, has released a brand new double-single.
The songwriter hails from the small seaside town of Whitchurch, where he honed his skills as a self-taught producer. After diving into the open mic scene, Woody—his nickname given by his girlfriend’s father—was captivated by the vibrant allure of the city.
Now residing in South London, the talented 22-year-old has produced tracks for notable artists like Bug Eyed and Florence Road, all while developing his unique sound.
His new double-single, ‘when you leave’ / ‘when you were around’, highlights different dimensions of his songwriting approach. ‘when you leave’ carries a polished, ambitious vibe reminiscent of The 1975, featuring energetic electronics intertwined with crisp guitar riffs. In contrast, ‘when you were around’ embraces a more straightforward charm, resembling a country tribute with minimalistic production and a heartfelt vocal performance.
“I think what you can hear in these first tracks is me expressing, ‘Forget it, this is me venturing out to find my path’,” he explains. “The songs that follow may differ entirely, but I’m exploring and testing boundaries because if you remain in a safe zone, you never know where any of it might take you.”
You can catch him live at Folklore in London on May 6th.
