The track is from their forthcoming Plus One album
The War And Treaty releases a new song off their highly anticipated album, Plus One, due out February 14th via Mercury Nashville. On “Save Me,” the husband-and-wife duo, Michael and Tanya Trotter, express a heartfelt plea for love and redemption, finding salvation and true happiness through their deeply cherished connection.
On the project, The War And Treaty double down on the powerful sense of togetherness that’s always fueled their music, offering up 18 life-affirming songs aimed at providing a shared experience of hope and healing and much-needed joy.
Mainly produced by Michael and recorded at the legendary FAME Studios in Muscle Shoals, Alabama, Plus One marks The War And Treaty’s follow-up to Lover’s Game—a 2023 LP including standout track “Blank Page” which nabbed a Grammy nomination for Best American Roots Song, with The War And Treaty nominated for Best New Artist. To create their most extravagant body of work to date, the duo enlisted their longtime live band and dreamed up a singular sound touched with elements of gospel, bluegrass, contemporary country, classic soul, symphonic pop, folk-rock, and more. Partly made in collaboration with esteemed producers like Jonathan Singleton (Luke Combs, Chase Rice), John Shanks (Stevie Nicks, Sheryl Crow), and Jesse Frasure (Jelly Roll, Kelsea Ballerini), the result is a transcendent album firmly rooted in their timeless musicality and forward-thinking vision.
The tracklisting’s myriad high points include “Love Like Whiskey,” a soul-soothing portrait of a love strong enough to overcome any obstacle, co-written by the Trotters and Miranda Lambert, the wildly ecstatic “Called You By Your Name” a breakneck-paced rallying cry influenced by the Black gospel tradition of shout music, “Drink From Me,” featuring virtuoso guitarist Billy Strings, “Leads Me Home,” which they performed on LIVE with Kelly and Mark, “Stealing a Kiss,” which they performed on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and “Can I Get An Amen,” which they performed at the People’s Choice Country Awards.
Since first lighting up the world with their fusion of country and soul, The War And Treaty has steadily built a legacy as one of the most iconic husband-and-wife duos in music history. In the last few years alone, Michael Trotter Jr. and Tanya Trotter’s phenomenal talent and daring originality have led to major milestones. In addition to the Grammys, the duo has received nominations from the Academy of Country Music, Country Music Association, CMT Music Awards, Americana Honors & Awards, and the People’s Choice Country Awards, and have taken home the Duo/Group of the Year prize at the Americana Music Honors & Awards two years in a row.
In March, they are set to embark on The Plus One Tour, a 30+ city tour that will continue bringing their electrifying live show to fans across the US. The tour will see the duo perform at several iconic venues across the country, including New York City’s Irving Plaza, The Howard Theatre in DC, The Troubadour in Los Angeles, The Kessler Theater in Dallas, and more. The tour kicks off on March 26th in Minneapolis, Minnesota and concludes on June 19th in Bristol, Tennessee.
