A photo would be very helpful....and I think we need to know what sort of trees you've got.

Are they fruit trees?, if so it could be canker and wooly aphids, spray with winter wash after cutting out any dead branches. As Sid says we need more information.

are you sure its not just lichen growing on the branches?

Yep, more info - I'm going with Steve's suggestion of lichen on the branches, and the "growths" sound like galls of some kind, but who knows, not enough info.
