Baby Woodrose
Chasing rainbows
Bad Afro
With the 80s nostalgia scene quickly becoming little more than a dance floor too crowded for much dancing or originality, it feels as though more and more bands are looking further back through the decades for relief and release. Baby Woodrose attempt a look into that strange, dark heart that fueled the psychedelic rock of the 1960s - borrowing from (and paying tribute to) bands like the Rolling Stones and Jefferson Airplane - and crafting an interesting, layered rock album in "Chasing rainbows". If you love the Stones and the soundtracks to films investigating the liminal period that the 60s and early 70s represented, "Chasing rainbows" should find its way into your collection, or at least be scrawled down on a piece of paper as a band to check out.
