Shining in the Wood is an extended play by the British band Tiger. Released in the US to good reviews, the EP collects together the title track and its two B-sides from the "Shining in the Wood" UK single and the three B-sides from the "Race" single. The EP was produced by Daren Eskriett and the band-themselves, with the exception of "Honey Friends" which was produced by the band with Louis Jones. The EP was a useful companion to the We Are Puppets studio album, as none of the tracks had previously been released in the US.
