NEWS: Tall Ships announce new album ‘Impressions’

After returning with a new single, ‘Meditations on Loss,’ earlier in the year, Brighton-based semi-experimental rock band Tall Ships have announced details of their brand new album, Impressions.  Due for release on 10^th February via FatCat Records, it’s the group’s first album since 2012’s Everything Touching, and comes after a turbulent period for them, where they were left with no manager or label.  But as keyboardist Jamie Field explains: “We couldn’t wait on other people any longer. We recorded and engineered it all. The DIY nature of it is one of necessity, not aesthetic.”  Bassist Matt Parker adds: “If someone had just come to us and given us the money to make a second album right away, it would’ve been completely different. It’s a product of everything that’s happened over the past four years.”  Watch the video for ‘Meditations on Loss’ below.

The band still also have a number of dates left to perform in the UK over the coming month. Details below.
