Biography:
The Steel Woods are an American country music group[1] from Nashville, Tennessee.[2] They play music in the style of music of Southern rock.[3] They released their debut record via Woods Music / Thirty Tigers.
A quartet of Southern rock traditionalists from Nashville, the Steel Woods lay claim to the sound pioneered by Lynyrd Skynyrd. Like Skynyrd, The Steel Woods balance heavy blues-rock with Southern poetry, and they add a bit of plainspoken outlaw country to the mix, as evidenced on their 2017 debut, Straw in the Wind.
