Bar Stool Preachers aren\u2019t\u00a0nurses or doctors, but they are one of the newest bright lights in music, with drive\u00a0and a social conscience to boot.<\/p>\n

So, they did what they know how to do best, they took two of their songs that were\u00a0being held for the much-anticipated new album and rewrote them to reflect their\u00a0thoughts and feelings for what we are all experiencing right now. They called in\u00a0favours, managed to get in the studio just a few days before the lockdown went into\u00a0effect in the UK, and banged out these amazing tracks. Engineered by folk-punk\u00a0wonder Jake Rousham (The Levellers) and the lads themselves, they have managed\u00a0to produce some of the most real and best sounding punk\/rock\u2019n\u2019roll of the last decade,\u00a0whilst being fun, current, and politically scathing.<\/p>\n

Knowing times are shit, but people are always going to need positive, strong music,\u00a0they made the songs free to download Here<\/a>. (And\u00a0streaming from all your normal providers.) There\u2019s a donate button for anyone with the resources to spare, for donations to the band,\u00a0from which they will donate to healthcare workers and their families in the U.K (and possibly others when funds arrive, as this is an\u00a0everchanging crisis). The band are doing what they can, raising money for the far underfunded NHS staff, providing their fans with\u00a0anthems to see them through this incredibly difficult time, and doing what they do best \u2013 unifying our community with two amazing\"\"<\/a>
\nsongs!<\/p>\n

Keeping with their normal ways of inclusivity, BSP then set out to make the most topical video possible and nearly a thousand fans\u00a0submitted videos for the first of the two singles. Editing has been done at lightning speed and we\u2019re so proud to be releasing a video\u00a0for ‘When The World Ends’ along with the track. Showing the band, friends, and fans, in their quarantined environments, singing\u00a0along to TJ\u2019s topical and uplifting lyrics.<\/p>\n

‘State Of Emergency’ is the riot track for the potential time to come. Heard on megaphones and sound systems across lands, from\u00a0locked down gardens… BSP are proving to everyone that they\u2019re here to stay, and they can help carry the weight of the world.<\/p>\n
