SO WHAT'S IT LIKE? It's that perennial question that is so hard to answer. WHAT IS your musical style? Like anyone who loves and lives music, potentially everything is an influence and an inspiration. BUT. If it needs a summing up... Take some early Sheryl Crow, add 1 cup of Aimee Mann; 1/2 cup Peter Gabriel, a couple ounces Bruce Springsteen.. a pinch of Johnny Cash and Carole King. Finish with a dusting of KT Tunstall and you'll have something nearly and ever so slightly resembling PollyWood - 'And She Did...' Ten years ago this would've been a country record. Five years ago, it might've been a rock record. Last year even, it could've been an record. Today, it's a little bit of all of those, and then some. This album sees the culmination but also the beginning of a musical journey that started almost ten years ago. Convinced that a music career was something for the 'dreamers' out there, Polly, like Eva Cassidy before her, made her career in the gardening world. But the overwhelmingly positive response received at every turn for her music was too much to ignore and hence this record was, eventually, made. After a chance writing collaboration four years ago with SAM BROWN, a multi-million selling artist in her own right, wheels were put in motion, the result of which was 'And She Did...' Polly's first studio album. Polly Wood has done her share of live work too. In addition to performing her own songs throughout the UK and Europe she has collaborated with other artists on their projects as a songwriter and a performer, including dueting with John Illsley of Dire Straits on his latest album. More info on this and Polly can be found on the Polly Wood Music website.
