The Kents

"Distant"

BY Sarah MurphyPublished Sep 18, 2017

Ontario rockers the Kents delivered their debut EP Waking last year, and now the group have premiered a brand new single.
 
"Distant" marks the latest sampling of the band's upcoming sophomore EP, Within Waves, which is due out next month.
 
"Drawing inspiration from a trip to Canada's East Coast, 'Distant' began as a cathartic explanation and took root in the endless highways, early mornings and late nights that can make a journey simultaneously exhausting and fulfilling," singer/guitarist Warren Frank tells Exclaim! "'Distant' is a story. Its intricacies hidden. Its core untold. It serves to explain an important development. It aims to justify the distance."
 
The song mimics the landscape from which it was inspired — vast and idyllic, yet laced with intriguing layers. Scroll past the band's upcoming tour dates to listen to "Distant" below.
 
Within Waves is due out October 13, and it is currently available for pre-order here.

09/22 Lindsay, ON - The Lindsay Exhibition
09/23 Port Hope, ON - Cultivate Festival
09/30 Peterborough, ON - Head Of Trent
​11/17 Toronto, ON - Horseshoe Tavern (EP release show)
