Nashville-based singer/songwriter Joseph Shipp, known for his critically acclaimed debut album "Free, for a While," is set to release his sophomore album, "Dig Deep," on October 4th, 2024. The title track, "Dig Deep," is a spellbinding song that delves into themes of mysticism, longing, and the search for meaning. This analog track, recorded directly to tape with an open-tuned acoustic guitar, evokes a sense of wistfulness and magic. Despite its cosmic ponderings, there is a grounding undercurrent that reminds listeners to find solace in the present moment.
