New York – Today The Head and the Heart released a third track from the band’s forthcoming album Signs of Light, out Sept. 9th on Warner Bros. Records. “Colors” is the third song released off of the album and is available to stream here and purchase here. The band previously released album tracks “Library Magic” and first single “All We Ever Knew” which has retained the No. 1 spot at AAA for the third straight week and is #13 on the Alternative radio chart.
In 2014, exhausted after four years of non-stop touring, the six members of The Head and the Heart pointed their individual compasses to new cities, new relationships and new adventures. Pianist Kenny Hensley learned to fly planes and enrolled in kung-fu training in China, while bassist Chris Zasche packed up a camper and went off the grid in the Canadian Rockies. Drummer Tyler Williams put down stakes across the country and immersed himself in the burgeoning music scene in Richmond, Va., while vocalist/multi-instrumentalist Charity Rose Thielen honed her compositional skills by writing for such legends as Mavis Staples.
That renewed sense of purpose can be felt throughout Signs of Light, the group’s first release for Warner Bros. Records. “This album isn’t about us now having achieved our dreams,” says Thielen. “The day we started being able to live off our art was the day we achieved our dreams, in my mind. This is the album where we really fell into our true voices as those artists.”
