Woodie Alan has been played on NTS shows including Shanghai, with I Don't Care first played on 28 September 2019.

Woodie Alan, Beijing’s premier blues and jam band, is a collaboration of three Chinese and two American musicians, resulting in a powerful amalgamation of sound. After just over a year together, the quintet was recently named Beijing Band of the Year by City Weekend magazine, after winning the English language magazine's Reader's Poll.

The band’s namesakes are Chinese guitarist and dobro master Woodie Wu and American singer/guitarist Alan Paul.

“I never would have guessed that the blues guitarist collaborator I sought for years was waiting for me in Beijing,” says Paul.

The duo are joined by American saxophonist Dave Loevinger and a powerful Chinese rhythm section of drummer Lu Wei and bassist Zhang Yong.

Woodie Alan released their debut album "Beijing Blues" in 2009.
