JAN 13 – Today, Wind In Sails, the solo project of Evan Pharmakis, is premiering the first new track from his forthcoming sophomore full-length Morning Light. The song – “Push and Shove” – can be heard now at youtube.com/equalvision.
Wind In Sails has also just been announced on the upcoming Radio Revival Tour featuring Ryan Cabrera, Secondhand Serenade, Nick Thomas (of The Spill Canvas), Runaway Saints, and Wind In Sails. The full US tour will kick off on March 12 in Sacramento, CA and wrap up on April 15 in Sioux Falls, SD. All upcoming tour dates can be found below.
Pre-orders for Morning Light are available now via the band’s Official MerchNOW Store. Morning Light will be released on February 24 via Headphone Music (an Equal Vision Records imprint).
“I’ve already begun rehearsing and preparing to put on the most honest and memorable of performances that I can for this upcoming tour,” shares Pharmakis. “I’m looking forward to the experience, and to sharing the stage with such great artists. This tour package is going to be very entertaining and unforgettable for all who show up!”
Morning Light was recorded at Apparition Sound Studios in Thompson, CT with producer Chris Curran. The 11-track album will serve as a follow-up to Brighter Days, an eight-song album released in October 2012 and the more recent Darker Nights EP (October 2013) – a raw, stripped down release touching on the loss of loved ones and betrayal of friendship, while still holding an underlying message of optimism. He elaborates, “No matter how horrible things can get, with a positive mentality there’s nothing we can’t push through. Things will always get better with time to heal.”
“The new album is a perfect balance between stripped down, intimate songs, and more deeply produced, full-bodied tracks,” reveals Pharmakis. “Morning Light represents both the beginning of a new day, and the first step on the road ahead for Wind In Sails.”
Wind In Sails has previously toured and shared stages with the likes of PVRIS, A Loss For Words, A Rocket to the Moon, mewithoutYou, Our Last Night, the Vans Warped Tour and more.
