London-based rock band The Shantics just released their brand new single “Heaven,” ahead of the release of the single’s music video, out November 1st.
In “Heaven,” The Shantics grapple with the reality of Steve Callahan, a divorcee who decided to sail the world to discover who he is without his wife. He uses the time to reflect, but ends up being pushed to his limits, stranded at sea for 76 days. Whilst severely dehydrated, yet being surrounded by undrinkable water, he describes the experience as “a view of heaven from a seat in hell.” Lyricist and vocalist, Jimmy Morris, used this true story as the inspiration for the song.
