James Jackson Toth, known to the world as Wooden Wand, is a maverick, good-hearted troubadour whose blend of smoky Americana has been garnering plaudits for the last decade. Unafraid to mix psychedelic workouts with sweet and soulful country, his varied and prolific output has resulted in a wealth of lyrically rich songs; the kind whose lines stick in your head for a lifetime.
“this is the sound of one musician’s prolific and mercurial path, reaching delightful new highs – 7.9″
- PITCHFORK
“Strangely hypnotic”
- SUNDAY TIMES CULTURE
“It’s folk, yes, but with wickedness instead of a waistcoat”
- Q MAGAZINE
“James Jackson Toth, AKA Wooden Wand is your fearless friend, the stumbling guy that goes out and gets himself into some incredibly fucked-up situations but comes out shining and lives to tell you all about it, entertaining you safely and immensely. You should be grateful. His songs are beautiful, indisputably, both musically and lyrically, and they’ll give you joy if you listen to them. In my view, he’s a great American songwriter in full bloom.”
- Michael Gira (Swans)
