Great name for a band
Wooden Conservation
The story
Wooden Conservation was formed in the early 2000s by a group of five friends who shared a passion for music and environmental advocacy. The band's members - lead vocalist and guitarist Alex Stone, drummer Tim Riley, bassist Mike Dawson, keyboardist Lisa Smith, and violinist Sarah Green - all met while working for a non-profit organization committed to forest preservation. Wanting to raise awareness about the importance of conserving our natural environment and merge their love for music and Mother Earth, they formed Wooden Conservation, a band with a mission.
Influenced by their shared love for the folk music of the 60s and 70s, Wooden Conservation uses their music to share their environmental messages. They quickly gained a following among eco-conscious listeners, and their music has even become a common sound at various environmental rallies and events. Their lyrics often weave tales of untouched forests, endangered species, and a call to action for preserving natural habitats.
