Memphis D – Down the road

“Down The Road” is the first track in Memphis D’s album “Songs For The King”, and is a real testament to storytelling through the blues. A soulful ballad portraying the sadness and heartbreak of a failed relationship, “Down The Road” sounds like it could be straight out of a Hollywood Western film. Although this song is about betrayal and leaving a loved one, D’s great rhythm and use of swing make it very hard to be angry.

Memphis D describes himself as being inspired by Classic Soul, Americana and Country which shows in this track and throughout the rest of his discography. Although D is based in Kirklees, his interpretation of the blues in “Down The Road” allows listeners to escape reality and time travel back to 1950s Memphis. D also has a sound similar to that of Elvis: soft and sincere – and any fan of the blues can count “Down The Road” as a welcome addition to their playlists.
