The Shipbuilders ‘Silk Road’

Liverpool’s very own gypsy-rock band, The Shipbuilders, have released their latest doubled-sided single, ‘Silk Road’ which marks a moment of change for the band, their first release under new label Mai 68.

‘Silk Road’ is a beautiful number glistening with lustrous guitar lines, buoyant rhythms and a velvety melody as The Shipbuilders present a rich, dreamy 60’s hued track to indulge in. The band layer the song sublimely with blissful guitar twinkling between a satin indie pop sheen of delight. It’s an authentic heart warming track that creates magical tones of wonder through charming and refined musicianship. With soft vocals, a catchy melody and floaty psychedelic soundscapes this silken track glides effortlessly into your ears ready to prompt repeat plays.
