Woody Woodham – Citizen Del Mundo

Releasedate: Okt 2008; Label: Anadat Records
By: Sabine van Gameren

Woody Woodham is a musician from the USA. He makes a cross between country and folk rock. In October 2008 he released his album “Citizen Del Mundo”

Although some of the songs on this album were already on the earlier release “Tribal Mentality”, the fans of Woody Woodham get to hear some new work as well. To get an idea of what Woody is about, think of a political opinion of an American who’s getting sick of the nowadays society.
“McDonald’s in Baghdad” is a clear example on where Woody gives his view of the globalization of America. “One Hit Wonder” is a song in which he tells us with a quite sarcastic undertone that he likes to become a one hit wonder himself. Although, opinions about the realization of this statement might vary, but in the end it is all a personal sarcastic joke. Don’t take it all too serious, because then the fun of this album will be gone.

The artwork of the album is a cartoon in which people float in the ocean in the half of a globe. Showing once again that besides the maybe complaining atmosphere of the music, you should not take it all too seriously.
