The Wood Brothers, Chris and Oliver, grew up in Boulder, Colorado. They left home and started their musical careers separately--Oliver in Atlanta and Chris in New York, where he met his bandmates, Medeski and Martin.

After many years, The Wood Brothers decided to start playing together like they did when they were kids. This guitar-bass duo explores the rootsy side of rock and folk with an album produced by John Medeski. Today's top tune is "Walk Away" from their album Loaded.
