Woody Woodworth & The Piners hail from Richmond, VA. Established in 2016, the Piners are named for the bygone expression to Pine – a deep longing for something or someone. Influenced by Virginia’s deep musical history and Appalachian culture, Woody Woodworth & The Piners fuse country, bluegrass, and rock and roll with traditional storytelling to create a powerful and timeless sound. One part Waylon, another part Springsteen, Woodworth’s honest vocals are backed by a no-holds-bar orchestration of sawing fiddles, electric guitars, and driving rhythm.
Woody Woodworth released his first full length solo LP in 2018 titled Virginia. Two singles in 2020, Cherokee Maggie and Long Way Down, and a live record titled live at Richmond Music Hall. Woody Woodworth & The Piners most recent releases include two full-length LPs titled Outlaws & Saints (2023) & Rebels & Dreamers (2024).
