The War And Treaty’s New LP ‘Plus One’ Set For Valentines Day

/by

The War And Treaty will release their fourth full-length album, Plus One, on Feb. 14 via Mercury Nashville.

On Plus One, husband and wife duo Michael and Tanya Trotter double down on the palpable sense of togetherness that has always fueled their music, offering up 18 life-affirming songs aimed at providing a shared experience of hope and healing and joy.

The project includes “Love Like Whiskey,” a portrait of a love strong enough to overcome any obstacle co-written by the Trotters and Miranda Lambert; “Called You By Your Name,” a breakneck-paced rallying cry influenced by the Black gospel tradition of shout music; “Drink From Me,” featuring guitarist Billy Strings; “Can I Get An Amen,” which they performed at the People’s Choice Country Awards and new track “Carried Away,” which is out now, among others.

Mainly produced by Michael and recorded at the legendary FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals, Plus One marks The War And Treaty’s follow-up to their Lover’s Game LP, which included standout track “Blank Page” which nabbed a Grammy nomination for Best American Roots Song. To create the new album, the duo dreamed up a singular sound touched with elements of gospel, bluegrass, country, soul, symphonic pop, folk-rock and more in collaboration with producers like Jonathan Singleton, John Shanks and Jesse Frasure.

The War And Treaty has been hot on the road this year, performing with Chris Stapleton and Zach Bryan on a variety of dates, as well as an opening slot with The Rolling Stones. They have also performed on NBC Macy’s Fourth of July Special, at the National Memorial Day Parade and recently performed at the 98th Annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. In March, they are set to embark on the “Plus One Tour,” a 30+ city tour across the U.S.
