The second single off the pending release Slave Ambient, "Come To The City" picks up a little where The War On Drugs usually tends to extenuate it's already long notes. With a steady beat over melodies reminiscent of the Aurora borealis, percussion and the twangy vocals bring shape to this gauzy ode to folk and pop. Stream it above while you peek at tour dates starting in August.
