From Brooklyn, singer-songwriter Elizabeth P.W. has just released “Head West,” a tune that will inspire you to abandon your daily duties and hit the open road.

In truth, this perky sliver of Americana was specifically designed to be included in the soundtrack to all epic road trips, as it appears in the opening credits of the film Out There: A National Park’s Story. It’s happy, it’s energetic, and listeners will likely catch glimpses of their potential lives in postcard form, from the snow-capped Rockies to the red desert rocks of Utah.

Highlights here include the level of grit on the guitar and the raw vocal performance, which both contribute to the idea that “Head West” will resonate with fans of folk-tinged alt-country. This is most obvious across the soaring choruses, where the refrain is bound to push your adventure an additional 100 miles or so, winding through picturesque ridges and breathtaking vistas that will live with you forever.

Head West” is now available everywhere you get your music.
