Donovan Woods is a special type artist, who transcends genre and truly pulls at your heartstrings. The singer-songwriter creates music that speaks to who is as a person, the experiences he’s been through, and everything in between. Today, he releases his brand new EP, Squander Your Gifts featuring five prolific songs that all rival any artist in the industry right now.
“I went through a period of only being able to write about him. It lasted about a year and I wondered if it would ever end. Eventually, I felt that I owed it to Abe to dedicate a collection of songs to him and that’s what this is,” shared Woods in a recent press release. The record as a whole is a dedication to his late friend, Abe Stoklasa, who died too young. “He liked my writing and that emboldened me to believe that my point-of-view had value, that my stubborn, maybe even boring devotion to plainspoken lyric would eventually matter. Abe was a gifted melodist whose ideas arrived from a musical palette I had no access to. His voice was wonderful: wise, easy to hear and easy to love. He sounded like he was 58 years old at 24. In a way, he was. Abe was incredibly kind and thoughtful to those he loved, whip smart and hilarious, as principled as anyone I’ve ever known. He cooked me the best steak I’ve ever eaten. He was brilliant. He was irritating as hell. I loved him and I miss him terribly.”
In just five songs, Woods made sure to honor his friend and also release some of his best music to date. Make sure to listen to Squander Your Gifts EP. We’re sure you’ll become a fan after you do.
