Wood Dwellas promote new CD
They may not have the star power of Byron Lee and the Dragonnaires or the longevity of Dell and the Sensations, but the Belize-American band known as Wood Dwellas keeps on cranking out the music and gaining in popularity. We caught up with them long enough to preview their performance on Friday.

Caye Water is the title of Wood Dwellas latest release. The album
won’t be in record stores until next month, but the band members came down to Belize a little bit early to promote it.
Quinn, Band Member, Wood Dwellas
“We have a new album out it is called Caye Water it should be in stores the beginning of October or right around there. So we are promoting that and we came down to perform and stuff like that.”
Indio, band Member, Wood Dwellas
“And when you come out make sure you go out and support it you know Belizeans we need support right now in order to keep producing the music.”

“Tell me about the songs on Caye Water?”
Moses
“The title track Caye Water is exactly that. Every time we come down we go to the caye it’s a way of giving thanks and just relaxing from all the hustle we have to go through in the States, so Caye Water. We had to have a song that represented Belize.”
Indio
“Yes, Everybody get strong from drinking Caye Water, that’s basically what the song’s about. Every Belizeans should know that.”
Moses, Band Member, Wood Dwellas
