WARS REVEAL NEW VIDEO FOR ‘SALT FLAT SAILING’


wars have revealed an official video for ‘Salt Flat Sailing’ the fourth single from their recently released debut album, ‘We Are Islands, After All’.

In support of this, wars are due to hit the road with Create To Inspire this May, taking in 9 UK towns/cities, finishing up at The Dome, London, in a one-off support slot to He Is Legend on May 12th.

Says Rob Vicars (wars vocalist); “Releasing our debut album, ‘We Are Islands, After All’ has been incredible for all of us in wars, and although we’re already writing new material, there’s lots we still have left to explore that we touched upon on that record; ‘Salt Flat Sailing’ is a song about utilising loneliness and solitude to tackle your darkest moments – taking that feeling of disquiet and disconnect so many of us are haunted by and being present in it.

We shot the video a while back now, but as we are about to head out on tour with Create To Inspire, we thought now was the right time to share it. We hope you love it.”

wars will also appear at this year’s Teddy Rocks Festival, Dorset, and 2000 Trees in Cheltenham.

29.04.17 Teddy Rocks Festival, Dorset
