Following on from We Lost The Sea’s debut headline tour earlier this year and their Australian tour with Finnish classical-metal maestros, Apocalyptica, the six-piece today, announce a select few headline shows along the East Coast to mark an end of an era.
An era of “Departure Songs”. Their third full-length album and first album since the loss of their lead singer and best friend, Chris Torpy. This tour will mark the final time We Lost The Sea play “Departure Songs” in its entirety in Australia and their last Australian shows before they depart on their debut European tour and begin the writing process for their next album.
If you’re not yet familiar with “Departure Songs”, it is an elevated and emotionally charged album, released in 2015 and written during a time of rare and uneasy rest, devoid of the constant adrenaline of performing live and the heartbreaking loss of Chris Torpy. It offered a new space for We Lost The Sea to reflect on all their previous experiences and cradle them, deciding not to replace their fallen brother, however, to continue on in his name.
