Tim Hart of the acclaimed Australian indie rock/folk band Boy & Bear releases today ‘A Way Long’, the second single lifted from his soon-to-be released sophomore album The Narrow Corner (Island Records/UMA) available Friday February 2nd, 2018.
Tim says, “A long way is about relationships. People getting bored and complacent and disconnected. I think a lot gets written about the good and the bad but never much about the inbetween.”
The forthcoming album reunites Hart with Milling the Wind-producer Mark Myers (The Middle East, Emma Louise, Timberwolf), as well as Sydney producer Wayne Connolly (Cloud Control, You Am I, The Vines), responsible for Boy & Bear’s #1 ARIA charted album Harlequin Dream. Both encouraged Hart to hone his craft.
Playing the majority of instruments himself and written largely on the road and recorded between touring with Boy & Bear, The Narrow Corner hinges on themes of loss, disconnection, and how travel alters perspective, for better and worse. It also introduces Hart as a skilled and plainspoken curator of his own interior universe.
Tim Hart will set out on his long-awaited Australian National tour in February 3rd.
