The combination … More So much more than that “Hotline Bling”
After watching The Wood Brothers at Headliners a couple of weeks ago, there are a couple of things about the band that are quite striking. Chris Wood plays the upright bass, bass and harmonica with unmatched expertise, and equal parts fervor and gentility. It is hard to fully picture, but the man did it.
