Acclaimed roots songwriters John Wort Hannam and T. Buckley make up the woodshed, a modern folk duo based in Alberta, whose name refers to the beginning of Buckley and Hannam’s collaboration - woodshedding songs together during a residency at the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity in 2017.

After a captivating performance at the 2023 Canadian Folk Music Awards, Buckley and Hannam finally decided to ratify their collaboration and bring the woodshed to life. Together they bring a beautiful vocal blend of brotherly harmonies combined with gutsy and sophisticated songwriting alongside intricate guitar playing.

John Wort Hannam

"Hannam's narrative, and strikingly resilient writing approach, hooks the listener immediately - the real deal." - SHINDIG MAGAZINE, UK.

Alberta's John Wort Hannam has been on his roots-fueled troubadour journey for two decades, spinning songwriting gold from the chaff of the lives he has encountered and within his fertile imagination. Twenty years into his career, he shows no sign of slowing down. In fact, he appears to be gaining both momentum and a wider audience, winning two 2023 Canadian Folk Music Awards for Solo Artist of the Year and Contemporary Album of the Year. He is recognized as one of the best folk roots songwriters in Alberta.

T. Buckley

“(...) Buckley is clearly on top of his game. ….Frame by Frame is beautifully produced and impeccably performed - a real little gem of a record. “ - Red Guitar Music UK 2021

T. Buckley stands quietly among a disappearing ilk of true craftsmen. Shadowed by his Western roots, his soul and voice are unmistakably genuine, and the result is a class of songsmith long revered and scarcely achieved. With influences stemming from the '60s Laurel Canyon and New York Cafe scenes, he tells stories embedded with detail, empathy and heart. His most recent album, “Frame by Frame,” has been recognized through Canadian Folk Music Award and Western Canadian Music Award nominations, as well as a Calgary Music Award for best folk recording.
