Produced by Tyler Fortier. Beth Wood’s 11th album, THE LONG ROAD, springs from a time of deep change in her life, and once again, she’s crafted a collection of stories that will have listeners nodding in agreement, feeling, healing, and standing back up again right beside her. Wood’s delivery is warm and intimate; like a close friend. Eleven songs of movement, connection, grief, and hope. “Making this album was the fulfillment of a dream from start to finish,” Wood said. “To be able to record at a beautiful studio in my hometown with the people I most wanted to work with; to record live and capture the magic we did in two days and then build upon it; to co-create a vision with my producer Tyler Fortier and then make it come true – all of these things felt like not just the culmination of twenty years of work, but a reward for it.”

EASY ON ME

"Sometimes Love," Beth's ninth album, was produced by singer-songwriter and producer wunderkind Tyler Fortier in Eugene, OR. This project was born out of Beth's Song-of-the-Month Club and features collaborations with multi-instrumentalist Tyler Fortier, guitarist Peter Perdichizzi, bassist Milo Fultz, drummer Merlin Showalter, and vocalist Erin Flood-Fortier, among others. The Eugene Weekly says "Sometimes Love" is..."strong and engaging pop-country; her soulful alto occasionally recalls Dolly Parton and her songwriting brings to mind the iconoclastic folk singer Patty Griffin."

3. WILDEST DREAM

Beth Wood is modern-day troubadour and believer in the power of song. Beth grew up in Lubbock, Texas - home of dust storms, tumbleweeds, and Buddy Holly.  Beth fell in love with music at an early age and envisioned becoming a classical pianist. Her twelve-year-old, over-achieving self never could have imagined that she would evolve into a singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, poet, singing and songwriting coach and professional traveling songbird. Looking back, one of Beth’s favorite musical moments did foreshadow a creative future: once at a recital, after losing her place in a Bach Fugue and just making up the rest, her teacher commented, “That was a lovely piece, Beth…what WAS it??”

With a heartbreakingly expressive voice, poetic lyrics, and a unique, strong guitar style, Beth has been winning over audiences from coast to coast for sixteen years.  Known for her exceptional musicianship, intelligent songwriting, and warm stage presence, Beth describes her music as soulful, organic, free-range, barefoot music delivered through a high-energy communicator of joy.  Beth has released 8 CDs, and in May of 2013, she launched her Song of the Month Club, an innovative way to engage fans and offer a steady stream of new work. Beth lives nestled among the tall trees on a hill in Portland and is loving the Northwest life.
