Biography:
Donovan Woods’ latest album is an acoustic reimagining of songs we already know, and yet it reveals new shades of his acclaimed songwriting and spectral singing that leaves his listeners hanging on every word.
Released on May 3 on Woods’ Meant Well label, The Other Way mines fresh meaning from the songs first collected on Both Ways, the Canadian artist’s 2018 release that scored him his first Juno Award (contemporary roots album) and a Canadian Country Music Award (roots album).

Where was my boy back then?
D#m B C# D#m
Now, what do I tell your mother, I haven’t seen you in weeks.
D#m B C# D#m
“I get him on the phone and he hardly speaks.”
D#m B C# D#m
He says, “Sweet little Donovan, you’re far too meek.”
D#m B C#
What is this life he seeks?
[Chorus]

Oh, by the reigns.
