| Uncle Woody Sullender & Seamus Cater When We Get to Meeting (2010) on dead ceo available from deadceo • "Its one of those things which you have no idea what to make of, but you feel instinctively its great and perhaps therefore all the more a great record." - Frans de Waard, Vital Weekly (NL) • "This is a refreshing take on the combination of folk and experimental musical modes and definitely deserves wider attention. 10/10" - Charles Franklin, Foxy Digitalis |
Uncle Woody Sullender Live at Barkenhoff (2009) on Künstlerhäuser Worpswede/dead ceo available from deadceo • "what we hear is masses of inventive and sustained playing that will appeal mightily to any of listeners who recently discovered the amazing Robbie Basho... the musical phrases just seem to pour out of him, like an intelligent conversationalist armed with many an arresting anecdote from his unusual life. Sullender is carving out a unique niche, delivering an intelligent and skilled update on American folk forms." - Ed Pinsent, Sound Projector • "... the virtuosity, the fast finger-picking licks, improvisation skills, variety of ideas and a lot of experiments. This is not music you hear on everyday basis which is a pity, because it should be." - Terrascope Online mp3: Violence of Völk (excerpt) |
Uncle Woody Sullender & Kevin Davis The Tempest is Over (2006) on dead ceo available from deadceo, Stickfigure Distribution, Amazon, etc. • "Beautiful, dynamic stuff." - Byron Coley, Harp Magazine • "a world of delicate tinkles, rapidly comforting strokes and telepathic gestures, all beautifully recorded"-Eugene Chadbourne, All Music Guide • "Sullender is as good at finding the right notes as he is at discovering timbres on the venerable banjo you never thought existed... Good stuff" - Dan Warburton, Paris Transatlantic mp3: Strata Collide |
Uncle Woody Sullender Nothing is Certain but Death (2004) on dead ceo available from deadceo, Stickfigure Distribution, Ear/Rational Music, Minimaedia (Germany), Amazon, etc. MP3 release is available on the iTunes store • "This is a solid debut and one of the most interesting releases I've heard in 2004. Sullender is an impressive musician and an even more impressive improviser." - Brad Rose, Foxy Digitalis • "Even listeners who haven’t acquired an ear for solo improv music might find themselves charmed by the freshness of Sullender’s project. One can feel its brightness and daring execution from the first pluck." - Joel Calahan, Dusted Magazine mp3: Papa, Help Me Across mp3: Commonwealth Edison (excerpt) mp3: The Grain of the String (excerpt) |

I've been selected as an artist-in-residence at the fantastic Harvestworks in NYC, for 2010-2011. We'll be working on creating a piece for my expanded banjo, incorporating surround sound.
Also, I'll be releasing a new 7" lathe-cut record later in the month, initially offered as part of the "Parts and Labor" show at the newly-opening Soloway gallery in Brooklyn.

The Issue Project Room has uploaded my entire concert from last Saturday as mp3s to the Free Music Archive, and they wrote up a really nice thing about my "twenty-first century banjo". Thanks Andrew!

I'm playing a solo set this Saturday at Issue Project Room in Brooklyn, opening up for Nat Baldwin of Dirty Projectors. Haven't played in NYC for a bit so should be fun.

Thanks to everyone who helped out with recent shows in Europe! A video of the show from Staalplaat in Berlin has been uploaded by the folks who run the event (I had some tech issues, so fwd through the first 2 minutes or so).
The new LP is starting to get reviews and airplay around... Also a couple shows in Boston and Brooklyn have been added to the calendar.
2 mar 2010
Tons of happenings next week. Official LP release shows in Netherlands, Paris, and Berlin. Rocking it on both sides of the Atlantic like Phil Collins with a streaming radio gig back in NYC in the middle of it all. Also, will be on Amsterdam radio (streaming as well) next Monday so can catch me on the Internet.
