Short Bio
Walter Longscott released his fourth album “A Matter Of Time”, created with 19 musicians from all over the world. The songs are a mix of Rock, Folk and Blues. With a melodic guitar that comes on top, carefully crafted, and influenced by laid back guitarists such as Mark Knopfler and J.J. Cale.
Bio
Not all things that came out of COVID-19 were bad. When the Belgian musician Walter Longscott’s activities came to a halt during the pandemic he wanted to see if singer/songwriting could lead to something. And it did, as he just released his new studio album titled “A Matter Of Time”, which is already the fourth album.
While the first album still had a strong Americana influence, the fourth one has a more vintage character. Influences all over the place, from JJ Cale over Knopfler to Pink Floyd and back. And the songs are telling a story. From burnout (“A Matter Of Time”) over war (“A Line In The Sand”) to Religion (“Hail The King Of Glory”).
It all starts with an acoustic guitar, but not less than 19 top-notch musicians worked together to transform the songs in an album. Subtle arrangements with a signature guitar sound, something to enjoy while drinking a good glass of wine, or why not, a Belgian beer !
