This Oct 20, Liverpool-based blues rock band The Heavy North has returned with their second studio album, โDelta Shakedown,โ delivering a powerful and infectious performance in 10 tracks.
The album kicks off with the self-titled track โDelta Shakedown.โ From the get-go, youโre greeted with melodic guitars that jam and hypnotize with a defiant rhythm beating down the groove. The vocals are thick, deep, and heavy, dripping with sensuality and a raw, passionate desire for a woman. The music complements the theme perfectly, radiating an irresistible sensuality and allure that draws you in and doesnโt let go.
The Heavy North consistently delivers their signature blues rock sound with gusto and grit. The finale, โForever Without You,โ stands out with its soothing guitar melodies riffing softly alongside subtle pattering sounds in the background. The vocals, rich and thick with emotion, sing soulfully and mournfully. Albeit the evident sorrow, the song does not encumber us with depressing amount of sadness. It remains groovy and swells in the relaxing atmosphere.
Behind the mastery of โDelta Shakedownโ lies Jose Ibanezโs recording, mixing, and producing efforts at 3rd Planet Recording Studio in Liverpool. The mastering, handled by Martin Kuchta at Roughgrain Mastering, ensures that the albumโs sound quality is top-notch.
With the release of โDelta Shakedown,โ The Heavy North promises us their biggest headline show at the Camp and Furnace in Liverpool on Dec 1. The band will come live with a string quartet, a brass section, and backing singers. So mark your calendars, because you are about to get a whole different experience.
