The blueprint for a soul searching road-trip or a blissful Country-Blues ballad, California based singer-songwriter Walter Rose is on the verge of releasing a truly brilliant debut album. Tentative and plodding percussion emphasizes the classic slide guitar sound, allowing Walter`s harsh yet vulnerable vocal to portray it`s emotional content. An eleven track affair, Cast Your Stone is lyrically very personal – memories are almost documented through the creative challenge of each track. Already on heavy rotation, this album is recommended for post-stress relaxation or some good old fashioned romantic reflection!!.. Modern Country or Alt-Country if you like, has indeed become the new staple diet for all things filed under Americana – A blistering testament to the rare talent of musicians like Walter Rose who successfully experiment with traditional song building and real life scenarios.

The record sounds the way that records sounded when they were made to live on your shelf and age like family heirlooms. Rose’s dusty, weathered, but assured voice is perfectly suited to songs that `American Songwriter` went on to describe as “melodic novellas of road trips through broken-down desert towns” and “the kind of stories that bring to mind tumbleweeds blowing through old Clint Eastwood movies.”
Walter Rose’s debut album Cast Your Stone will be released on January 17th, 2012.
