Hellwood is a gothic roots-rock group featuring Jim White, Johnny Dowd and drummer Willie B.(Neko Case, Sally Timms). Recorded in a cabin in central New York, in a room with walls covered in newspaper clippings of musician obituaries, Hellwood’s “Chainsaw of Life” beings the minimalist approach of Johhny Dowd, the honky-tonk trip-hop of Jim White and the intricate percussion of Willie B. Hellwood wrapped up a Europeon tour late last year and the band is planning a tour of America this year.
