Wooden Wand is the alter ego of singer and multi-instrumentalist <a href="spotify:artist:4IJ6ACsxXS8z2EnYfAhKCA">James Jackson Toth</a>, who alters the band name from one project to the next. Initially working in the mid-2000s in collaboration with free improv experimentalists <a href="spotify:artist:1cLB0ntyVQNlgecccxQkIa">the Vanishing Voice</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4IJ6ACsxXS8z2EnYfAhKCA">Toth</a> eventually spent more time as a solo artist mixing folk, jazz, psychedelic, and noise rock influences into a singular blend that identified him with the alt-folk, freak folk, New Weird America scene. Along with a surfeit of obscure and often self-released singles and CD-Rs, higher-profile releases like Second Attention and James and the Quiet began to widen Wooden Wand's audience. Later releases like 2012's Briarwood and 2013's Blood Oaths of the New Blues saw <a href="spotify:artist:4IJ6ACsxXS8z2EnYfAhKCA">Toth</a> exploring facets of outlaw country, while also releasing a handful of albums billed simply as <a href="spotify:artist:0ctQ5NeiygCDt2XwQrjxe0">Wand</a>. In addition to his own D.I.Y. efforts, Wooden Wand releases have appeared on a wide variety of labels such as <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Fire+Records%22">Fire Records</a>, <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Kill+Rock+Stars%22">Kill Rock Stars</a>, <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Rykodisc%22">Rykodisc</a>, <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Young+God+Records%22">Young God Records</a>, and <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Three+Lobed+Recordings%22">Three Lobed Recordings</a>, the latter of which issued 2017's Clipper Ship, <a href="spotify:artist:4IJ6ACsxXS8z2EnYfAhKCA">Toth</a>'s first LP since 2014's Farmer's Corner. ~ Charity Stafford, Rovi
