On the dawn of Valentine’s Day, multifaceted singer and songwriter Jim Camacho has unveiled a wistful and emotionally-charged new single titled “Heartbreak Train” – a relatable treat that touches on love… and heartbreak. The song and its official music video are now available to stream on all digital platforms. Watch “Heartbreak Train” here.
Riddled with the soft cries of a wistful guitar and hauntingly beautiful piano, “Heartbreak Train” instantly spellbinds listeners under the all-too-familiar experience of Camacho’s newest lovelorn hit. “Now she’s gone / you feel all broken in pain / you’re gonna have to ride / that heartbreak train,” Camacho croons. “That heartbreak train / never takes you home / that heartbreak train / leaves you all alone.” Spinning a profound tale of unrequited love, Jim Camacho ultimately captures the angsty feeling of watching the one you love walk away.
The accompanying music video for “Heartbreak Train” proves to be the perfect visual landscape for Camacho’s heartfelt penmanship to manifest. Simplistic, yet striking, “Heartbreak Train” follows the artist as he performs his verses aboard his own heartbreak train, shadowed by dancer Bianca Allanic who spins an emotional and intricate choreography. “Heartbreak Train” was directed by Juan Davila and produced by 2WayCreative.
“Heartbreak Train” arrives on the heels of his latest success “California Calling.” His latest single, which has amassed nearly one million views on YouTube (+834K), has captured audiences across the globe for a greater cause. Following the devastating wildfires in greater Los Angeles, Camacho has mourned alongside a grieving nation who dreams of coming together to make California whole again. What is a love letter to the City of Angels, “California Calling” also stands as a heartfelt prayer, mourning the fragility of the city’s magic all while celebrating the resilience of the place where legends are born. Since its release, the song has quickly amassed over 30K streams across streaming platforms.
The Miami-based native credits the inspiration behind “California Calling” to the magic city, planting his heart in California. In efforts to support those affected by the wildfires, proceeds from “California Calling” will go to the Recording Academy and MusiCares’ Los Angeles Fire Relief Effort To Support Music Professionals impacted by the crisis.
Up next, Jim Camacho is gearing up for two exciting headlining performances. This Friday, February 14, Camacho will kick off with a performance at the iconic Luna Star Cafe in Miami, Florida. Shortly after, Camacho will visit London on February 21 for an unforgettable experience at The Camden Club.
