Howdy programming friends, it’s Andy Gesner and the rest of the HIP Video Promo staff with a brand new video, sculpted with pure patriotic passion. Nathan Shaffer delivers a classic American rock hymn for the turbulent modern world. Shaffer’s “Come Back America” is laced with both affection and anger for a country he’s had a love affair with for over forty years and it shines through every chord and lyric.

With a unforgettable raspy vibrato only garnered through living the real life experience and the signature cry of a Fender Stratocaster, Nathan Shaffer delivers a force of monumental proportions. Drawing from the inspirations of his childhood, including Queen, The Beatles, and Zeppelin, “Come Back America” is a modern rocker with all the best classic rock elements. Yes, that means this fiery track is laced with four part harmonies, guitar squeals, and lyrics about this lovely country of ours. It also means that this song is written from the heart and soul, with one main intention: to be loud and pure!

The touching thing about this united extravaganza of rock is that Nathan Shaffer has lived through the changes he’s singing about, from his early days as a young rocker on Capitol, EMI, and Atlantic records, to his modern reawakening of musical spirit and passion. You know, the kind that brings a man down to a moment of surrender at the studio microphone. Possessed by the political conundrums of White House drama, Nathan Shaffer became inspired to revisit the musical career he happily retired from years earlier. He felt wronged as he saw the country he was in love with change before his very eyes, becoming shaded by unfamiliar colors. This vision is clearly displayed in every controversial frame of the “Come Back America” video as it treads through the pages of Americana, as well as footage of recent political events. As Nathan Shaffer takes jabs at Palin, the past and current administration, and political blunders of all types and sorts, he does so with style by acquiring the rights to the actual high profile videos and photos broadcast on mainstream media. In fact, Shaffer’s video has already gained national notoriety status with the help of news outlets like GlobeNewsWire and Street Insider taking note.

The most important part of any rock and roll music video is the attitude and this video doesn’t miss a beat. Shaffer rocks a full line up of Marshall amps, Fender guitars, and a wall of most appropriately placed gigantic LCD screens. America has always been about being larger than life, and Shaffer wears this notion in full fashion. It is always exciting when rock and roll is not stingy, and this clip is anything but.
