Cycamore ignites a new era with its latest single, “The Heart of America”

Cycamore debut single “The Heart of America,” constructed to endure. Originally written by Tim Blixseth and presented as the theme song for the Today Show’s “Make a Difference” campaign following Hurricane Katrina, “The Heart of America” gets a second act,  one that resonates with another country at a crossroads, seeking fortitude and hope.

This is no mere cover. Cycamore, a powerhouse collective of seasoned musicians who have played with various stars and bands over the years, reinterpreted “The Heart of America,” endowing it with an immediacy and a gleam of classic Americana and rock along with hints of contemporary tales. The result? is a track that is at once deeply rooted in tradition and instantly relevant to the modern day.

“Reinterpreting “The Heart of America” with Cycamore has been a profoundly impactful process,” Blixseth tells us of the single. “Its power is in its ability to evolve and inspire, regardless of era or locale.”

That sentiment resonates loud and clear. The Heart of America is grounded in soaring instrumentation, lush harmonies, and a sense of naked, untamed passion, qualities that characterize Cycamore’s ethos. Its combination of old and new textures gives “The Heart of America” the resonant intimacy of a long-lost favorite, but it arrives with the force of something brand new.

Cycamore is boldly releasing “The Heart of America” as the first taste of their upcoming New Old School Album: real music is doing well. If this single is any indication, the album will be a testament to the staying power of soul, storytelling, and masterful musicianship.
