Jonny Woodrose and the Broken-Hearted Woodpeckers
Jonny Woodrose and the Broken-Hearted Woodpeckers Jonny Woodrose and the Broken-Hearted Woodpeckers was formed in January of 2009 as a one man band consisting of Jonny Woodrose, a second-or third-hand guitar and three or four songs. Through playing open-mic after open-mic, Woodrose's humorously insightful lyrics and charm-drenched vocals quickly earned him a following among other artists and bar/coffee shop regulars. Eventually several other musicians were moved to join forces as a rotating cast of Broken-Hearted Woodpeckers. While still maintaining its fluctuating line-up of musicians, the band has, in recent months, more or less solidified into Singer/Rhythm Guitarist, Jonny Woodrose; Lead Guitarist, Charlie Kern; Bassist, John Vanderiet, and Drummer, Dave Vanderiet. All the while, Woodrose has been cranking out impressively more lyrically and musically inspired songs at a fevered pace, giving his fans plenty of new material to sink their ears into during their frequent appearances at venues like The Larimer Lounge, The Meadowlark, The Mercury Cafe, The Worland Warriors Bus, and The Open Tap Bar and Grill.
