Canadian Roots, Rock, and Soul band Bywater Call shared the video for the super-charged track ‘As If’. The single will be their third of 2024, and the fifth song released from their upcoming studio album ‘Shepherd’ due out the 9th of August.
“This song embodies the awareness, anger, acceptance and breaking free from toxic energy in one’s life” says lead singer Meghan Parnell, who drew inspiration from former relationships.
The video was partially filmed and recorded at friend, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Kevin Howley’s beautiful barn studio in the country of Ontario, Canada where he acted as engineer. Bass (Mike Meusel), drums (Bruce McCarthy), horns (Julian Nalli, sax and Stephen Dyte, trumpet) and keys (John Kervin) were captured live-off-the-floor. Additional recording, including lead vocals (Meghan Parnell) and Guitars (Dave Barnes), was captured by Bywater drummer Bruce McCarthy (The BeatFarm in Toronto), who also acted as mixing engineer.
A big band shuffle with Parnell leading the charge with a commanding vocal performance followed by the bellowing horns, slick guitar playing and huge drums. These guys make big music and they make it loud smoking guitar solo included. More please.
