We’re proud to share with you this stellar opening track from the upcoming self-titled record from The Battle Of Land And Sea, due out next Tuesday on Brooklyn’s Notenuf Records (home to the much-hyped A Sunny Day in Glasgow). Relocating to Portland from California (nooooo!!!!), the soft-voiced Sarah O’Shura brings to mind the hazy whisper of Mazzy Star, or perhaps a more delicate Cat Power.

No word on a proper Portland CD release show (it’s all East Coast and UK tour dates for now), but according to TBOLAS’ (!) label, there will be something in town during “late February/early March.”

Until then…
