Unleash The Archers are happy to announce their new EP, Explorers, to be released via Napalm Records on October 11th. It will feature two cover songs and the first single is called "Northwest Passage", originally written and performed by Stan Rogers. The video for the track was created by Rod Scobie.




Brittney Slayes comments: "This song means a lot to us as a band, we like to put it on during those long drives on tour and it always brings us right back home. We originally recorded it to be a bonus track for our last full length album Apex, but we loved the track so much we knew it needed special treatment. We held on to it for a bit and eventually decided to release it as its own 7" vinyl EP with another Canadian cover song as the B side. The song 'Northwest Passage' is all about touring through Canada, which Stan Rogers did a lot, and how it equates to being an explorer looking for the passage all those years ago. It really hits home with us, we've toured through Canada too many times to count, so we know just how Stan was feeling. That's where the name of the EP came from too; every time we hit the road on tour it's like we too become Explorers, with the great big unknown stretching out before us."
