I wrote about the previous single a month ago:
Small Shake is back with an exciting new single titled “Montana Dream Wife.” This fresh release seamlessly fuses energetic indie rock with a subtle touch of country twang, effectively capturing the emotional turmoil of a platonic breakup. The song poignantly depicts the challenges of coping with the loss of a close friend to unspoken circumstances, emphasizing the significance of friendship and the pain of growing apart.
“‘Montana Dream Wife’ came when I first started learning guitar, during the early days of the pandemic,” says Small Shake. “I only knew about three open chords, but needed to get out the flurry of thoughts in my head. In a way, I’m happy with my instrument limitations. I find the simplicity as direct as the heartbreak I experienced.”
I’ve been captivated by the soulful and tranquil vibes of this slow, melancholic alt-country indie rock song. The cover artwork depicting the Montana mountains perfectly complements the music, and I find myself completely immersed in this track’s atmospheric journey. As I listen, I’m transported to a countryside filled with raw emotions, guided by gentle guitar riffs and beautiful vocals. It’s a truly delightful track, and I’m eagerly looking forward to more singles from this incredibly talented artist.
