Shaker Bloomheart – “Walking Westward”

/

Seattle-based band Shaker Bloomheart crafts a dynamic allure on the track “Walking Westward,” which expands from ambient lushness into a melodic, heartfelt rock sound. Coming via the new album Not Another Sunrise, “Walking Westward” is amongst many highlights on the release.

The track’s aspirations to start anew with “a clean slate” stirs within the steadily evolving guitar tones, jangling with hypnotic immersion into the twangier expressions. The “now you’re safe” vocal reassurances signal a radiant rock ascent, where effervescent guitar lines and calming bass accompaniment traverse into the “traveling for far, far too long” world-weary sentiments. “Walking Westward” compels with its quality songwriting.
