Wooden Stars are a Canadian indie rock band formed in the 1990s. The band,
from Ottawa, consists of vocalist and guitarist Julien Beillard, guitarist
Mike Feuerstack, bassists Josh Latour and Mathieu Beillard, and drummer
Andrew McCormack.
The band, who describe their music as "a fusion of unlikely influences
ranging from XTC and The Clash to Georges Brassens and James Blood Ulmer",
released four albums between 1995 and 1999.
In 1999, the Wooden Stars collaborated with singer-songwriter Julie Doiron
on the album Julie Doiron and the Wooden Stars, which won a Juno Award for
Best Alternative Album. Following that album, the band members
concentrated on other projects, although the group never formally
disbanded.
In 2004, they reunited to perform at the 40th birthday party of their
longtime producer Dave Draves. In early 2005, the band played several
reunion shows in Ottawa, Toronto and Hamilton, and rereleased their old
material
