American songwriter presents new album
On his eighth album, Miracle Focus, Strand Of Oaks â the project of Tim Showalter â evolves into a more optimistic sound, inspired by a new phase in his life - one in which he began painting and acting, among other things. He also came to terms with the traumas he sang about on his previous records.
âThe idea of Miracle Focus was born out of one simple concept: to make people feel good. Throw in a healthy mix of Ram Dass, yoga, Freddie Mercury, Alice Coltrane, and Beastie Boys plus over a year of writing and building the extremely dense architecture of the songs, and Miracle Focus was born. The result is FUN, wild, rhythmic music filled with synth layering and mantra-like lyrics intended to uplift and hopefully bring some light to whoever listensâ, Showalter shares.
This is sure to be an unforgettable night at his favourite European concert venue.
