Vinyl LP pressing. Donovan Woods was curious: What if he re-recorded Both Ways, his acclaimed 2018 record that won him a Juno Award for contemporary roots album, and distilled it's 12 songs to their bare essence? An "acoustic reimagining," if you will. "We started from scratch," he says, from the instrumentation to his vocals to a fresh understanding of the heartache and regret that underpinned those songs. "There are no recording elements carried over from that album. It's all brand-new." Woods ended up with The Other Way, his album that brims with inspired interpretations of Both Ways that are intimate yet startling in their urgency.
