On this episode of The Mixtape, we welcome Canadian singer-songwriter Donovan Woods as he reflects on his first-ever Australian tour—from battling jet lag to soaking up the local vibes. Known for his heartfelt lyricism and wry humour, Donovan opens up about the stories and sentiments behind his new album, Things Were Never as Good If They're Not Good Now.
We also chat about his deep love of vinyl records, the magic of physical music, and why the format still holds a special place in his creative journey.
And of course, Donovan creates an imaginary mixtape of the artists and songs that have shaped his sound—from quiet folk ballads to soul-stirring anthems.
🌏 Honest, funny, and deeply reflective—this is an episode for anyone who loves songwriting with soul.
🎧 Tune in now and discover why Donovan Woods is a name every music lover should know.
