Ahead of the release of new album Between The Richness next month, Fiddlehead have shared the next song from the record: Heart To Heart.

The powerful new track follows the release of lead single Million Times, and has an incredibly powerful concept: "The lyrics to this song serve as both a letter to my children on how to communicate with me after I eventually move on into whatever comes after death, and an imagined conversation with my own father who is now 11 years gone," explains vocalist Pat Flynn.

"Essentially, it’s a song about finding ways to reconnect with those we love, despite the hard barriers between life and death. The music has this feel of infinity to it. I remember hearing the ending for the first time and having the emotional impulse to tear through the channels of time and speak with the people who have gone into the unknown. That felt appropriate for the type of message I was trying to write."

Of the album as a whole, meanwhile, Pat says, "These massive things happened in my life between the first record [2018's Springtime And Blind] and this record. 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.

"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. My son’s name is Richard and my father’s name is Richard, so it’s literally between the two of them, but it’s the richness of life and the richness of death."

Between The Richness is due out May 21 via Run For Cover Records. Check out Heart To Heart below:
