Ted Sablay is a Las Vegas guitarist and songwriter who has spent two decades as The Killers' touring guitarist and, since 2021, their Musical Director.
“State & Motion”, out September 25, 2026, is the fullest statement yet under his own name: ten songs of heartland rock in the lineage of Tom Petty, Jackson Browne and The War on Drugs, but shaped by a Musical Director's ear for arrangement and restraint. It follows his 2022 release “You'll Be Back Here Soon” and is led by the single "Lose Control."
Featuring Elvis Costello & The Attractions drummer Pete Thomas and Wallflowers bassist/engineer Whynot Jansveld, the record trades stadium scale for something closer and more direct: songs about wanting, waiting and moving on, delivered without a wasted bar.
