  • Woodhands is a Canadian indietronica band. Based in Toronto, Ontario, the band currently consists of musicians Dan Werb and Paul Banwatt. Past members and guest collaborators have included Roselle Healy, Pat Placzek, Maylee Todd, Laura Barrett, Roger Leavens, Taylor Trowbridge, Chris von Szombathy, Henry Fletcher and Jess Conn-Potegal. In an interview, Werb said they called the band Woodhands because he "wanted to let everyone know that there was an organic element to the ambient electronic music I was making. " Werb had previously pursued different incarnations of the band in Vancouver and Montreal before meeting Banwatt through their shared membership in Henri Fabergé and the Adorables. They began playing and recording together as Woodhands in early 2007, and signed to Paper Bag Records in the fall after playing the Pop Montreal festival. The duo finished the recording of Heart Attack in early 2008 with producer Roger Leavens at BoomBox Sound in Toronto. Heart Attack was released on Paper Bag Records on April 1 2008. After the release of Heart Attack Werb and Banwatt toured across Canada and internationally, including shows in China and Japan, to support the album. In reference to Heart Attack, Woodhands said in an interview: “With the album, we just wanted that immediacy of emotion and that urgency of not being able to hold something in,” Werb says. “Just that sense of ‘this has to be expressed’ — there is no holding back. ”
