Wood Mountain Roses

The Warbling Voices of the Mojave Desert

Band Bio

Short Version

Wood Mountain Roses blend psychedelic folk, rock, and country into lush, meandering soundscapes that celebrate nature, wandering, and the small joys of being alive. Based in St. George, Utah, their music invites listeners to slow down, breathe deep, and find beauty in everything from desert skies to teeny little flowers.

Medium Version

Wood Mountain Roses craft songs like postcards from the open road — swirling together psychedelic folk, rock, country, and classic singer-songwriter warmth. Drawing inspiration from artists like Khruangbin, Bright Eyes, and the Lumineers, their music drifts between the earthy and the ethereal, rooted in a deep love for nature, people, and the strange beauty of existence. From the desert heart of St. George, Utah, they have carried their sound to festival stages like Landslide Fest, sharing stories that celebrate conservation, kindness, and the quiet miracles found in soil, sky, and song. Whether you’re a traveler, a dreamer, or just passing through, Wood Mountain Roses offer a soundtrack for living well and wandering wide.

Long Version

Born from the red sands and wide skies of St. George, Utah, Wood Mountain Roses blend psychedelic folk with threads of rock, country, and the timeless pull of singer-songwriter tradition. Their music feels both ancient and immediate — echoing the sounds of Khruangbin, Bright Eyes, the Lumineers, Andrew Bird, and Hermanos Gutierrez while carving out a space entirely their own. At the heart of Wood Mountain Roses is a deep reverence for the natural world. Their songs are love letters to ecosystems both vast and tiny: forests, deserts, oceans, and the unseen worlds beneath our feet. Through swirling guitars, warm rhythms, and poetic lyricism, they explore themes of conservation, wanderlust, and the human search for meaning amidst a rapidly shifting planet. Having played stages like Landslide Fest, the band continues to wander — both musically and literally — gathering stories from the road, from rivers, from the soil, and from the people they meet along the way. Their mission is simple but radical: to uplift, to inspire, and to remind us all that there’s still plenty of wonder left to find.
