Battle Call by Shawn Harris Shawn Harris : Battle Call.
 Introspective, melodic rock.

From the first moments of the first song ("Can't Let Go") with its lush Zoso guitars lilting in and out of a groove-heavy JPJ/Bonham backbeat, one thing is instantly clear: this isn't a bunch of YouTube hopefuls fiddling around with Garage Band. These are real musicians at the top of their game. And they love the lost art of songwriting.

With Harris at the helm, those songs tell real stories. From the sweeping emotion of "Words To Say," to the sweet folky feel of "Only Love Can Bring," his voice radiates a warm mix of vulnerability, strength and passion all echoed equally in his lyrics. Like all master craftsmen, he understands that to know where you're going, you've gotta know where you came from. It's obvious he "gets" country, Celtic, blues, jazz and Randy Rhoads. That's why his music takes you to other places. And that's why his guitar playing is so brilliant.

He's taken the spiritual journey that we're all on and given it the perfect soundtrack.
