It’s not often that a band uses an actual tree branch full of leaves for an instrument, but for a trio of Fayetteville musicians, it seems only natural.

Woven — made up of Jessica Hawk, Regina Caeli and Talina Madonna — “weave” together vocal harmonies, hand percussion, crystal and brass bowls, ukulele, guitar, spirit drum, finger cymbals and a branch of actual leaves to create their music.

Their band name, like their sound, flows from the idea of bringing together different threads of music to make a unified, but multilayered musical tapestry.

Join us on the What's Up! podcast to hear an interview with the group and a few of their songs.
