Canadian indie/folk sensation Devarrow unveils laid-back record Heart Shaped Rock, a collection crafted to evoke joy within us, reminding us to see the good in life. Showcasing his ability to infuse traditional folk with fresh perspectives, the collection is vibrant and tender as it celebrate life's simple joys against lively backdrops.
A shining sonic beacon amid the fears of the world, the album urges us to embrace the small things we have control over in life, encouraging us to treat people and ourselves well to encapsulate happiness and hope.
From the pop-infused stylings of “Likewise,” to the unconventional tale of love that unfolds on “Bus Baby,” each offering captures the vibrant artistry that Devarrow has been building and evolving. Electrifying focus track “Lightning Bolt,” is a standout that seamlessly blends a touch of old-school grit with modern flair within a bluesy-contemporary pop musicality.
Speaking of the inspiration behind the album, he says, “ The world feels scary, and I wanted to inspire people to see the things that are good, and the areas we do have control, in a world where we feel so powerless. We have control in the ways we treat people, build community, the relationship we have with our environment, and how we treat our mental and physical health. This record is about being excited about finding the strength to take control of one's health, and discovering some ways to stay happy and healthy.”
Offering a gentle mix of heartfelt introspection and luscious melodies, Devarrow infuses us our lives with simplicity, strength and serenity one delicately crafted note at a tine.
