This inventive new single from Shambhu may at first appear to be a simple easy on the ears piece
when first listened to, but within the weave of the narrative it touches many
emotions, points to emotive references, and also provides the listener with a
backdrop, and reflective nuances, and all in 158 seconds, this crafted new
offering is called Helping Hands,
something we all need from time to time.
The strum start is as gentle and tender as you can imagine,
while the piece unfurls like a petal, 50 seconds in the first major change
occurs on a track that features acoustic guitars, bass and Dobro, and this is
the first time that he performs on a custom-made Oracle Guitar crafted by
master luthier Todd Johnston.
The uplift on that aforementioned mark breeds a moment of
deep emotional healing and reflection, whilst constantly moving onward, in the
same way and style, that US instrumentalist Holland
Phillips used to do back in the day. The picking of notes and constant
strum, breed beautiful layers of warmth and tenderness.
Shambhu is one of the finest contemporary
instrumentalists of his day, and here on this new single he proves that to be
the case with ease, this is one of those singles that once you have listened to
it once, you just can’t stop, there is so much to enjoy from its happy refrains
and pleasant heart felt tenderness, and what fan of acoustic guitar wouldn’t
love to have this brand new single called Helping
Hands by Shambhu.
