DURHAM, NC — November 3, 2025 —The Wood Brothers, dubbed “masters of soulful folk” by Paste, will come to the Carolina Theatre of Durham on March 7. Tickets are now on sale at the venue’s box office and online at www.carolinatheatre.org.
The Wood Brothers formed after brothers Chris and Oliver Wood pursued separate musical careers for 15 years. Chris already had legions of devoted fans for his incomparable work as one-third of Medeski Martin & Wood, while Oliver’s band King Johnson built a loyal following in the South. With drummer Jano Rix added as a permanent third member, The Wood Brothers have evolved into one of roots music’s most revered acts, garnering a Grammy Award nomination and releasing nine studio albums, including their latest album “Puff of Smoke.”
Defined by their ever-curious musical minds, voracious creative appetite, and love of spontaneity, The Wood Brothers’ ninth studio album, “Puff Of Smoke,” brims with joy in the face of turbulent times. A true collaborative effort between its three members, its 11- tracks weave a medley of musical ideas ranging from Latin-inflected acoustic guitar lines to driving post-jazz rhythms to infectious sing-along choruses, resulting in a cohesive, joyful whole. As Rolling Stone wrote, “the roots-rock band remains proudly hard to categorize.” All of it comes with The Wood Brothers’ trademark turns of phrase and lighthearted yet subversively profound wisdom at the core.
The group returns to the road in support of “Puff Of Smoke,” demonstrating a zealous commitment to bringing their electrifying live performances to fans across North America and Europe. As those who join them night after night will attest—while singing along to classics like “Luckiest Man,” “Postcards from Hell,” “Happiness Jones,” and countless others from their extensive catalog— The Wood Brothers remain one of the most enduring and beloved bands of their time.
