"Now I can say without a doubt that I am also a fan of their taste in music. I look forward to all of the shows coming up this fall!"

The Woodshed Orchestra is made up of a spider web of bands and bandleaders from Toronto, St Catharines and Montreal such as Michael Herring - Peripheral Vision, Nic Buligan - The Lemon Bucket Orchestra, Julia Hambleton - St. Dirt Elementary Band, Tania Gill - The See through Trio, Dave Clark - Gord Downie & The Country of Miracles and many others, plus an alumni of folks who come and go depending on availability. The band plays Dave Clark's 200 strong original songbook. The players learn the tunes on the gig in front of the crowd, hence the name "Woodshed" in the title. They've created their own on stage language to navigate from song to song and to shift gears on a dime to awestruck audiences. Everybody in the band sings. Typical Woodshed gigs run between 3 to 4 hours straight. You are likely to hear everything from New Orleans Jazz and Funk, to R&B, to Tex-Mex, to Calypso, to Ska, to Punk, to Pop, to Country, to Klezmer, to Torch Ballads and beyond.
