“‘Tale Of A Man’ is about your favourite friend and the loving and adventurous relationship that you share, and the challenges you face due to periods of separation,” vocalist Jordan Finlay. “In spite of this you remain invested in your future together, as you lie in wait for what lies ahead for you both.”
The music video for ‘Tale Of A Man’ has also been released. The video pictures the four band members on a wild trip to Paris. Decked out in cartoonish-mediaeval attire, they shot the video in their hometown of Mornington Peninsula, Australia.
