Between Hurricanes is Stephen Fearing’s first solo album in seven years. The follow-up to 2006’s acclaimed Yellowjacket, the album is available today via Lowden Proud Records Ltd.

Born out of several life-changing events, the album is both the document and result of many significant changes for Fearing including divorce, a change of record label and an amicable parting of the ways with his manager – as he says it all meant “it was time to let go of the old ties and step out into the brave new world of true independence.”

Have a listen to the finely honed piano, bass, and drum accents on As The Crow Flies, the ethereal synths on Cold Dawn and the gentle picked folk of Don’t You Wish Your Bread Was Dough.
