Donate to support families affected by the crisis in Ukraine ➔ Richard Walters Releases New Song “Anchor”
British singer-songwriter Richard Walters released a new song “Anchor” on July 28, 2023 via Nettwerk.
The song is taken from his upcoming solo album “Murmurate”, which is set to be released on November 17, 2023.
The track was written by Richard Walters and Edd Holloway. Produced by Eliot James at Eastcote Studios in London.
Enveloped by his tender falsetto, the song is a spacious piano piece adorned with longing string arrangements to stir the soul.
Richard Walters said of the song, “'Anchor' is a song about and for my daughters; I've been away a fair bit the last 12 months, which felt especially hard post lockdown, and it's a song about that familial pull and instinct to protect and support them.”- The new album was recorded, produced and mixed by Eliot James, before receiving its final mastering by Dyre Gormsen.
With all tracks performed and written by Richard Walters.
“When it comes to music, throughout lockdown I was desperate to be in the room with other people making things again. In my opinion, Zoom just doesn’t cut it when it comes to finding common musical ground and building things up” Richard Walters said of the album. “That’s where the title ‘Murmurate’ comes from - I just wanted to feel that unison again, to move in time with other songwriters and musicians, to flock and gather and soar a little bit, even if the distance from my homelife made me feel torn from time to time.” - source : Apple Music
