The Woo Factor Band is a Boston-based band comprised of good friends and some of the best musicians in the world. The band was founded in 2014 and since its inception has become one of the most sought after musical acts in the Boston and New England area. The members of the Woo Factor come from all different walks of life but have two common goals in mind. Those goals are to create music that is socially conscious and to create an atmosphere that is not only entertaining but is also spiritually fulfilling when performing. 

Their style is an eclectic blend of R&B, Hip-Hop, and Neo-Soul with elements of Rock and Free Jazz. With this fusion of genres, the Woo Factor creates a sound that can only be described as a breath of fresh air for the ears and the soul. Their influences are Jill Scott, Robert Glasper, Bilal, The Roots, Michael Jackson, Lauryn Hill, D’angelo, and many more. 

Budding artists, ages nine and up, are invited to join us.  The series of free workshops is just one of the many offerings of the annual ParkARTS program, sponsored by Holly and David Bruce. 

The workshops welcome artists of all skill levels to create their own greenspace-inspired masterpieces, with instruction and materials provided. All classes are held from 10 a.m. - 12 p.m., weather permitting.
