The Wood Brothers Interview: Warts and All
From left to right: Jano Rix, Chris Wood, Oliver Wood; Photo by Alysse Gafkjen
BY JORDAN MAINZER
In between One Drop of Truth and their next record (hopefully out early next year), The Wood Brothers are giving a glimpse as to why they’re even more essential as a live band than as a studio band. Live At The Fillmore, out a week from Friday, documents their two-night stand at the San Francisco venue, a mix of songs from Truth, older material, and covers. According to drummer (and “third brother”) Jano Rix, the nights there weren’t technically their best shows but the ones that captured the spirit of their live show better than any other. Speaking to me over the phone last week from his dressing room in San Rafael, Rix shared some insight into the band’s live approach, including how their songs change over time and how they construct set lists. Read the interview below and catch the band on tour at various points throughout the rest of the year; they’re working with Thistle Farms so that $1 from every ticket sold will go towards helping female victims of trafficking, prostitution, and addiction.
Since I Left You: Why did you decide to release a live record?
Jano Rix: One reason is we tend to change the arrangements of songs over time, and things just evolve. Sometimes, the instrumentation evolves in songs, and we play them in a completely different way. To present a different take on the songs and kind of document that. And depending on where the songs fall in the set on a certain night, we might play them on completely different instruments. It’s nice to document some of that stuff. Sometimes, we feel like we get better at them, too, over the years. [laughs]
SILY: Is this recorded performance some of the best that your old songs have ever been?
JR: We like to think so. [laughs] But we tend not to listen back to the records for years and years. Sometimes, we’ll hear the album version come on the radio and are so surprised at the tempo. We’ll have completely forgotten and be like, “Oh yeah, there are horns on this song.” It’s about the evolution and capturing where we are creatively this year.
SILY: How do you decide on your set lists on a nightly basis?
JR: There are a lot of factors: what day of the week it is, the town we’re in, what we played last time in the town. We look back at previous years’ sets and try to do something different each time. If we’re playing multiple nights in a place, we’ll try to write different sets for different nights. And just trying to construct a flow that will take people on a journey from the beginning to the end. Take into consideration what the venue feels like and what the audience is gonna feel like there. If it’s all standing, if it’s a seated theater, if it’s a festival and there’s three other bands playing within a half mile of us--then the soft songs with lots of space are not gonna go over well. We all meet about it about an hour before we go on. That’s when we write the set.
SILY: How has touring One Drop of Truth been unique as compared to touring previous records?
JR: That’s a good question...I haven’t really pondered that...I don’t know that it’s really all that different. We don’t play songs mostly from the record we just put out. We play all Woods Brothers songs every tour. We mix up new songs with the old songs. People want to hear songs from the first record. So I wouldn’t say it’s that different. Our crew has gotten bigger, and we’re carrying more instruments, gear, and lights, which is it’s own challenge, but it’s been really rewarding.
SILY: Your discography certainly has some upbeat songs, but they’re mostly very lyrics-forward. Your live shows seem to be more celebratory. Do you “put on a show” more than simply play songs?
JR: For sure. It’s a show! It’s changed a lot since the early days just because of the venues we’re playing. When you’re playing to a few hundred people in a club, they’re basically in your living room. When you’re playing to 2,000 people, what gets across and what’s possible is different. As time has gone on, we’ve had more songs on records that are danceable, and people have come to really like that. We’re just kind of in it with everybody. They like what we do, but we like what they do, too. We’re feeding off of them. It influences us how to write a set.
SILY: On the performances of Smoke Ring Halo’s “Blue And Green” and [Jimmy Reed cover] “Big Boss Man”, you play keys and drums at the same time.
JR: I do that quite a bit these days.
SILY: It’s obviously something you can’t realize just listening to the record. So where does a live album, for you, fit? In between a concert and a record? Or is it still just a record?
JR: It’s definitely more in between. Especially this one and the last one. Though we recorded the entire spring and listened to all of it, we decided to put out just the Fillmore, warts and all...We had some more perfect performances, but the Fillmore had a lot of energy. We thought it would be cool to document the experience of going to a show.
SILY: What are all of the different instruments you play on any given night?
JR: I play all sorts of messed up toy instruments. [laughs] I play drums, the shuitar, a crappy old guitar I mashed into a percussion instrument, keyboards, melodica--that’s about it. But I’m pretty busy up there.
SILY: Do you have a pretty standard rotation of covers in your arsenal? Or are you constantly learning new ones?
JR: It’s best when we’re constantly learning new ones. We learn new covers when we have openers sit in with us and try to learn a song they know. It’s always good inspiration.
SILY: What else is next for you and The Wood Brothers in the near future?
JR: We’re on the road. We’re working on the final mixes for the next studio record, which we’ve been working on for the past year. We’re getting ready to finish that up, and the album will come out the beginning of next year. We’re excited about that. We also have a show at Red Rocks [Amphitheatre] a couple weeks away. That’ll be a big, fun show for us.
SILY: Any plans to come back to Chicago?
JR: Of course. Every year we’ll be in Chicago. It’s one of our favorite cities to play. You guys have the most great venues of any cities we know of. There are just so many.
SILY: What are your favorites?
JR: SPACE in Evanston. The Vic. Lincoln Hall. Old Town School of Folk Music--that place is amazing! We’ve just played so many venues in that town, as opposed to other major cities where at every size, there’s maybe one decent venue, if it’s decent.
SILY: What are some of your other favorite cities to play?
JR: We do always enjoy our West Coast runs, especially during the winter, for the change of weather. It’s really fun to play Levon’s Barn [Levon Helm Studios] in upstate New York. The Beacon [Theatre] in New York. Stone Mountain Arts Center in the middle of nowhere in Maine. It’s beautiful and has the best backstage anywhere. There are so many great venues around, but they’re not always the big ones. It depends on the vibe.
SILY: Is there anything you’ve been listening to, watching, or reading lately that’s caught your attention?
JR: I wish I had an answer for that, but nothing specific comes to the tip of my tongue. I have been listening to a lot of Cuban salsa lately.

Tremontaine challenge: Would you rather be a Swords-person or a scholar?
Scholar 100% certain.
I can’t live without inky smudges on my paws. You are not taking my raison d’être from me. : ) Sure I would like to keep a decorative sword around and certainly a dagger on my person in the Tremontaine world + be taught the basics on how to use them, but actual swordfighting is not for me.
Courses I would like to take: literature, history, folklore, theatre, philosophy, the fun things. :) Can I have a list to pick from? Of the languages particularly, I want to learn more languages.
Naturally the University will have to revisit their rules and let girls study there! I can’t wait to curl up with study books in that library. In my fancy dresses. I would not feel myself without those. –Dressing up as a boy would not work for me, I would fool no one. - It would be a bummer and against my principles if I had to change sex to be allowed in the University. Even as a man, I should probably still deeply dislike wearing buttons and trousers. This is a big reason why Swords(wo)manship would be downright awful for me. As much as I love being theatrical... I would be terrible at fencing lessons, I am most certain of that. I would also hate the uncertainty of the game, the possibility of being wounded, the dangers of infections and blood diseases and such. I much rather think things over than have to react immediately. Incidentally, I have found a beautiful book on the art of fencing and swordfighting in Europe through the ages (it’s in Dutch though): http://www.davidsfonds.be/edition/photos/big/TEWAPEN.jpg
Or will I go to the Duchess’ school… (you knew this is where I was going with this, I have a slight fixation in the Riverside world and I still think meeting her would not have a good outcome.) I wonder what that institution will be like. I hope it is not just for maths and navigation, it probably is. I hope there is chocolate.
PS I am not certain if I am still a cat here… a young lady from the Hill perhaps who wants a decent education? Why a lady, because I will need money for tomato pies. :)

The great British housing crisis
Britain was unique among other European countries in providing social housing through direct state provision, although initially it was seen as a temporary measure that reflected the excep- tional circumstances of the immediate post-war period (Power, 1993).

The number of boats on the London waterways increased by 72 per cent between 2012 and 2017, according to licensing data from the Canal and River Trust (CRT). Over the same period, the number of boats in London without home mooring (continuous cruisers) tripled to 1,880.
River life also means moving constantly. Permanent moorings are rarely available in London, and prohibitively expensive when they do come up for sale or rent. So, like almost 2,000 other boats on the city's waterways, mine is on a "continuous cruiser" licence, administered by the CRT
I've shared moorings and meals with people from all walks of life: people who are retired or on a break from stressful jobs, people who work in finance, psychology, theatre, media - even a jazz musician with a piano on board.

The origins of London’s housing shortage can be traced to a failure over decades to provide the number and types of homes that people working in London’s growing economy require. Between 1997 and 2016, the number of jobs in London grew by 1.6 million, an increase of 40 per cent. Over the same period its population grew by 1.7 million, an increase of 25 per cent. But with a reliance almost entirely on private sector provision, and on an increasingly limited range of delivery models within that sector, London has not been building the homes needed to accommodate the extra demand. Between 1997 and 2016, just 470,000 homes were added to the housing stock, an increase of only 15 per cent4.
When other forms of homelessness are taken into account, one in 50 of all Londoners is homeless

Charles Bradley Cancels Tour, Reveals Liver Cancer
New Post has been published on http://gossip.network/charles-bradley-cancels-tour-reveals-liver-cancer/
Charles Bradley Cancels Tour, Reveals Liver Cancer
Charles Bradley canceled all of his upcoming tour dates in order to treat and recover from liver cancer. The soul singer was diagnosed with stomach cancer last fall and received treatment. During a recent stretch of recent tour dates, he learned that cancer cells were found in his liver.
“I love all of you out there that made my dreams come true,” the 68-year old said in a statement announcing the tour cancelation. “When I come back, I’ll come back strong, with God’s love. With God’s will, I’ll be back soon.” Bradley canceled 37 gigs throughout North America, South America and Europe, including a New Year’s Eve slot with My Morning Jacket at Broomfield, Colorado’s 1st Bank Center.
The acclaimed vocalist issued his third album, Changes, in 2016. Bradley launched his career in the 1960s, but didn’t achieve mainstream success. For most of his life, he battled poverty and unemployment while drifting through the U.S. His fortune changed after linking up with Daptone Records co-founder Gabriel Roth and producer Tom Brenneck, and Bradley released his debut LP, No Time For Dreaming, in 2011 – at the age of 63.
“Right now, I don’t see a stopping point ’cause I don’t see no place where I can stop at and rest in peace,” he told Rolling Stone last year. “But I know that from doing shows for the public, the love when I go out into the audience and hug ’em and the things that they say to me personally … [pauses] Wow. It’s not only me onstage doing it. I open their hearts up and they feel the love of my heart and when I go out there and really respond to ’em and talk to ’em, they tell me some things.”
