After five years, Calgary’s stoner groove rock trio Woodhawk is back on the road, roaring across Canada from August through October. The tour celebrates their electrifying new album ‘Love Finds a Way,’ released June 6 via Grand Hand Records. Fans can expect a thunderous set filled with new tracks and classics, each powered by the raw intensity and joy that make Woodhawk one of Canada’s most magnetic live acts.
‘Love Finds a Way’ captures a moment of transformation for the trio. The album bridges the band’s heavy rock roots with new emotional depth, layering in melody and atmosphere while keeping the irresistible grooves that pulse through every riff. It’s Woodhawk’s biggest sound yet – confident, soulful, and unapologetically loud.
Themes of darkness, healing, and hope drive the record forward, with longtime collaborator Jesse Gander adding cosmic synth textures that expand the band’s reach. Guitarist and vocalist Turner Midzain, bassist Mike Badmington, and drummer Kevin Nelson channel five years of evolution into every beat, riff, and roar. This is a band that plays from the heart and aims straight for the soul.
“We are over the moon to get this album out,” the band shares. “It really is a journey of getting out of the darkness and into the light. Check in with your friends and loved ones. Hug the ones you love. Be nicer to each other. Love will always prevail and be stronger than anything else. After ten years of being a band, I feel like we are still just getting started!”
