Fiddlehead have returned today with the announcement of their second full-length, ‘Between The Richness’. The new album era kicks off with lead single ‘Million Times’, Check it out below.
‘Between The Richness’ follows on from the band’s 2018 album ‘Springtime & Blind’, which was a gut-punch of an album that followed Patrick Flynn coming to grips with the passing of his father. The new album will explore the ever-presence of grief, but with Flynn now writing from a drastically different place.
“These massive things happened in my life between the first record and this record” he said. “It just so happened that I ended up getting married, I had a child, and it was around the 10-year anniversary of my father’s passing.”
On the new album, Flynn brings his experiences, diving into the paradoxes of life, death, joy, and pain – All whilst taking with stunning humanity and honesty. “The name of the record is called Between The Richness because it’s important to me to explore the weird feeling of happiness and sadness, because that’s just where I am right now” Flynn explains.
“My son’s name is Richard and my father’s name is Richard, so it’s literally between the two of them – it’s the richness of life and the richness of death.”
‘Million Times’ is the perfect introduction to the new albums sing-along-ready choruses and compelling words, and a statement of intent on their return. Check out the new track here:
