THE SHOW
In the late nineties DJ Woody set up a clubnight in his home town to champion good music and the art of good djing. Essentially a hip hop night, the patrons of 'A Country Practice' could encounter library jazz, funk, disco or indy rap pieced together in a way to keep both the heads and hedonists happy in one room.
In 2005 Woody took the 'A Country Practice' name to his collaborative LP with Sean Vinylment, this dusty aural excursion gained critical acclaim amongst the dj and cratedigging communities.
2009 sees 'A Country Practice' become a radio show, in the same vein as it's 2 other incarnations, 'A Country Practice' is a celebration of DJ culture, expect monthly mixes from Woody as well as contributions by friends and affiliates from around the globe.
