Ben Heyworth – “Image of Roads (Montana Mix)”
Ben Heyworth’s “Image of Roads (Montana Mix)” is a new version of a song he first released as an acoustic track in May 2025. This time, he worked with members of Minorplanet to turn it into a full band recording at Blueprint Studios in Salford, with Gary Hadfield producing.
The difference between the acoustic take and this mix is clear. The song now has more body and a stronger sense of drive. It sounds fuller and more grounded, like it has found the shape it was always meant to have. You can tell he believed in the song enough to bring other musicians into it and let it grow. The influences are easy to hear. There’s that stretch of drive-through Americana running through it, but it’s filtered through a British 90’s indie mindset, with a light psychedelic touch in places. That combination gives the track its own identity without overcomplicating anything. It feels natural and unique.
“Image of Roads (Montana Mix)” sounds like a songwriter sticking with an idea and pushing it further because he knew it deserved more. That kind of commitment matters. Keep up with Ben Heyworth on social media to see what else he has lined up this year.
