The War And Treaty Unleash Major Label Debut Single

Newly-signed Mercury Nashville duo The War And Treaty have made their major label debut with their new single, “That’s How Love Is Made,” available everywhere now.

Exploring what true partnership means, the husband-and-wife duo of Michael Trotter Jr. and Tanya Trotter co-wrote the soaring ballad with Dave Barnes. The track marks the first taste of their upcoming album, produced by Grammy award-winner Dave Cobb.

“I can’t believe the day has come and we finally get to let the world in on the secret that is, ‘That’s How Love Is Made’ and we hope folks connect to it as much as we have,” Michael says. “My prayer is that so much love is created through this song that eventually hate is drowned out. Let love be as creative as it wants in our friendships, in our business partnerships, in our neighborhood, and never put the chains on her…for she is meant to be free.”

“My palms are sweaty, my knees are shaking and I’m going crazy all because of the love we put into creating this song,” Tanya adds. “Now that it’s being released, I’ve moved from tongue clamping to nail biting. Needless to say, I’m excited.”

Founded in 2014, The War And Treaty fuse country, soul, gospel, rock ‘n’ roll and more, and have been named the International Folk Music Awards 2021 Artist of the Year. The duo has spent 2022 entertaining crowds across North America, Europe, Italy, Australia, Ireland and more, opening for artists such as Al Green, Willie Nelson, Brandi Carlile, Jason Isbell, John Legend and Lauren Daigle.

They will launch their headlining “Hearts on Fire Tour” beginning Sept. 7 at Atlanta’s Terminal West. For a full list of upcoming dates, click here.
