The EP will follow in the
footsteps of past Moffatt records, featuring powerful harmonies, infectious
rhythmic melodies, and great guitar licks. The EP was recorded and produced by The
Moffatts, and the brothers were writers on all songs. The EP will be

The Moffatts consist of

Back in the late 90’s The
Moffatts were EMI Music’s #1 International Priority, and toured the
world extensively, where they sold in excess of 7 million albums, and were
presented with Gold and Platinum records in 32 countries – which included going
10X’s platinum in The Philippines. Their
last album, Submodalities featured the #1 hit - Bang Bang Boom, which at the
time was the fastest #1 single in Canadian music history.
The Moffatts signed their first record deal in 1994, and at the time they became the youngest band to ever
sign a major label, recording contract. Label mates were none other than Shania
Twain, and Toby Keith. In 1997 The Moffatts changed
genre and signed a new deal with EMI Electrola out of Cologne, Germany.
Although The Moffatts were not
performing as a band from 2000 to 2018, it doesn’t mean that they had hung up
their instruments. Scott was the producer
that broke Slot Machine, Thailand’s most successful
international Pop/Rock band, and
won producer of the year. Currently Scott produce’s country music
Super-Star Luke Combs. Bob
and Clint released a number of projects under various names. Same Same featured the biggest selling international
album of the year throughout S.E. Asia in 2006 with the #1 hit ‘Love Isn’t’. Like Strangers had a top
20 hit with ‘Goodbye Baby’ in 2014, and Endless Summer’s hit ‘Amen
for Women’ reached #1 on Spotify Canada charts in 2016. When The
Moffatts disbanded Dave choose a completely new direction,
pursuing the spiritual path of Yoga, until mid 2017 when he chose to return to
the world of music, and joined his brother’s to record this new record, and write
songs within Nashville's prestigious A circle.
The Moffatts will begin touring in late April of 2018.
