The Wood Brothers/AJ Ghent Band

The Wood Brothers/AJ Ghent Band

Back for their third SMF performance after opening for the Derek Trucks Band in 2010 and kicking off the SMF concerts at the Ships of the Sea North Garden in 2013, The Wood Brothers have since added drummer and multi-instrumentalist Jano Rix as a full-time member. Brothers Chris (bass) and Oliver Wood (acoustic/electric guitar) leave it all on stage, performing a high-energy mix that includes elements of blues, jazz, reggae, rock and even gospel.

The AJ Ghent Band fuses Southern rock, blues, soul and funk music, to create what frontman AJ Ghent calls Southern Soul. His father, great uncle and grandfather are all considered masters of the Sacred Steel gospel of the Pentecostal church, which exposed him to lap steel guitar at an early age. Often referred to by fans as Prince and James Brown's musical love child, AJ Ghent and his singing slide guitar are guaranteed to get audiences moving.
