Not all things that came out of COVID-19 were bad. Being a long time guitar player, the Belgian musician Walter Longscott’s activities came to a halt during the pandemic, so he wanted to see if singer/songwriting could lead to something. And it did, as he just released his new studio album, titled “Where And Why”, which is already the sixth album.
While the first album still had a strong Americana influence, the sixth one is more of a rock album. Influences all over the place, from JJ Cale over Knopfler to Pink Floyd and back. Subtle arrangements with a signature guitar sound, something to enjoy while drinking a good glass of wine, or why not, a Belgian beer !
Touring around in Belgium and neighbouring countries, accompanied by talented musicians, Walter Longscott reveals an original repertoire carried by his great mastery of the guitar, the rugged warmth of his voice, and the richness of the sounds and melodies.
