Desert Ships celebrate as they go on a summer tour with the release of a video for the epic track, ‘Skyliner’, available now on YouTube. The London psychedelic rock three piece is hard at work recording their new album as they currently tour throughout Europe, playing dates up until the end of July with a spot at the Into The Wild Festival and their final show in London.
Sat 11th July – Into The Wild Festival, Bucks
Wed 22nd July – 93 Feet East, London
The video for Desert Ships heavy psychedelic rock track ‘Skyliner’ was directed by Julian Hand with special effects that enhance the psychedelic mood of the track keeping true to the bands style of dreamy melodies and hypnotic grooves. Portraying images of the band performing in sci-fi color with vague entrances of clouds, a close up image of an eye, and airliners flying across the screen, the videos intense images keep up with the strong collage of sound that Desert Ships create in their outstanding single, ‘Skyliner’.  The video is reminiscent of the days when MTV actually aired music videos in the early 90’s, with a grunge lo-fi type feel that really keeps their style of music in its perspective.
In 2012, Desert Ships released their debut album, Doll Skin Flag, which they recorded with acclaimed producer, Mark Gardener lead singer of 90’s band Ride. They again return to the studio with Gardener to work on their upcoming album in collaboration with German film director, Wim Wenders. Â As the first album gained a considerable amount of publicity and success the band also received constant airplay on local radio in the UK, US, Europe, and South America.
