The WoWz are currently at work on their third full-length album with producer Ben Fries, due out in 2008. The band has also recorded the soundtrack to the new documentary, King Corn, which will kick off its national theatrical run at New York's legendary Cinema Village on October 12th, 2007. We've had the pleasure of seeing an advance screening of the film and we were thoroughly impressed. Also on the horizon, The WoWz have recorded music for the upcoming film, Kansas vs Darwin, which will screening at several film festivals in the near future.
Stay tuned for more!
