Los Angeles-based ambient rock outfit
Woven formed in 2001 around the talents of Steve Abagon, Rich Abagon,
Marc Viner, and Ory Hodis. The group's debut EP, EPrime, drew favorable reviews and comparisons to everybody from
the Flaming Lips to
Pink Floyd and
Aphex Twin.
Woven's signature blend of art rock, trip-hop, and electronica was even more apparent on their full-length debut for Interscope,
8 Bit Monk. The band's sophomore release,
Designer Codes, arrived in 2008. ~ James Christopher Monger
