Woody Woodworth & THE PINERS
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 story telling to create a power and timeless sound.
Woodworth was born and raised in the rural Virginia to a working-class family who’s love of music was an integral part of daily life. At an early age he was introduced to the sounds of classic country, bluegrass, and rock and roll. As a writer, Woodworth embodies the heart of Appalachia with his haunting melodies and tales of love, loss, and the American spirit. Woodworth writes songs of the blue-collar working class that are easy on the ears and heavy on the heart.
Woody Woodworth & The Piners have three studio LPs Virginia, Outlaws & Saints, and Rebels and Dreamers.
