Tall Ships preview long-awaited second album with "Day By Day"

"Day By Day" is the second track to be shared from the new record (following lead single "Meditations On Loss"). Arriving four years on from the release of Tall Ships' debut, these songs mark a significant change for the band.

After finding themselves with no label or manager, the group adopted a DIY ethos and come back stonger than ever.

Frontman Ric Phethean reveals that the track "was written during a summer in Berlin, and was the first song we wrote for Impressions. It's about striving to live in the moment."

With Impressions released early next year, Tall Ships recently announced a headline tour of the UK. These dates are detailed below.
