Born in the Deep Woods is the fourth album by Portland-based, Austin-born family performer Red Yarn. The album completes his Deep Woods trilogy, an epic tale of family and self-discovery in the American wilderness, told through traditional and original animal folksongs. Blending American music of all eras - from bluegrass to trance blues to heartland rock'n'roll. Born in the Deep Woods pushes Red Yarn's creative folklore project into bold new territory.

2016 , the third album by Portland family performer Red Yarn (Andy Furgeson). Recorded with Grammy winning producer Dean Jones, the album is an homage to Furgeson's favorite old children's records and songbooks. Red Yarn emerges from the Deep Woods - the weird animal world he explored with his first two albums - to sing sunnier songs about waking up, childhood play, animal adventures, and parenting. Wake Up & Sing expands on Red Yarn's rich and lively folk-rock sound. His rootsy vocals, driving guitar, and tight harmonies with his wife Jessie Eller-Isaacs are reframed within Jones' whimsical sonic palette. The sound is rounded out by Jones' drumming, Jed Greenberg's bass and fiddle, guest appearances by Morgan Taylor of Gustafer Yellowgold, Mo Phillips, and Jane Scarpantoni on cello. Furgeson's collaborator Ryan Bruce created bright linocut prints for the album artwork, echoing the simple designs of old Folkways children's records.
