It wasn't that long ago that the members of Seattle's The Head and the Heart were busking on street corners, strumming their acoustic guitars, stomping their feet and singing in harmony as they attempted to attract the attention of passersby. After capturing that unbridled energy on the band's 2011 debut album for hometown label Sub Pop, the band went from playing open mic nights to selling out headlining shows in prestigious venues. The album became one of Sub Pop's best-selling debut releases in years. And, slowly but surely, ideas began to form for the band's second album, imbued with the experiences of traveling the world and playing to ever-growing crowds.\u003c\/p\u003e\nThe Head and the Heart's second album, Let's Be Still, is a snapshot of a band that didn't exist four years ago. Virginia native Jonathan Russell and California transplant Josiah Johnson formed the core songwriting partnership, which was rounded out by drummer Tyler Williams, keyboardist Kenny Hensley, vocalist\/violinist Charity Rose Thielen and bassist Chris Zasche, who'd met Russell and Johnson while tending bar at an open mic they frequented. The nascent group dove headfirst into writing, recording and performing, and even moved into the same house.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eAfter the breakaway success of their debut and countless shows on the road, the band is in a distinctly different situation. \"There is a confidence gained from having such an amazing fan base,\" says group member Jonathan Russell. \"You start to trust yourself more. When we were busking, we were filling so much space to keep the listener from walking away.\" Says Johnson, \"We wanted to write songs that felt bigger, and didn't need to be so frantic. I think for the most part we wanted to record an album that sounds like the way we play now.\"\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eAdds Russell, \"Has there been an impact on our lives since we have become full-time musicians? Sure. On one hand, it's everything you have ever wanted. On the other hand, you start to miss the things you've lost and had to give up. And that's just life. My job is to write about it.\"\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eLet's Be Still was recorded at Seattle's Studio Litho with assistance from prior production collaborator Shawn Simmons, and mixed in Bridgeport, Conn., with Peter Katis, revered for his work with bands such as the National, Interpol and the Swell Season.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"aec-musictabs\" class=\"ui-tabs ui-corner-all ui-widget ui-widget-content\"\u003e\n\u003cul role=\"tablist\" class=\"ui-tabs-nav ui-corner-all ui-helper-reset ui-helper-clearfix ui-widget-header\"\u003e\n\u003cli role=\"tab\" class=\"ui-tabs-tab ui-corner-top ui-state-default ui-tab ui-tabs-active ui-state-active\" aria-controls=\"mt-1\" aria-labelledby=\"MusicTracks\" aria-selected=\"true\" aria-expanded=\"true\" style=\"font-weight: bold;\" tabindex=\"0\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracks\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"mt-1\" aria-labelledby=\"MusicTracks\" role=\"tabpanel\" class=\"ui-tabs-panel ui-corner-bottom ui-widget-content\" aria-hidden=\"false\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"aec-jukebox\" class=\"tracksonly\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"jp-playlist tracksonly\"\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e1\u003c\/span\u003e Homecoming Heroes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e2\u003c\/span\u003e Another Story\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e3\u003c\/span\u003e Springtime\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e4\u003c\/span\u003e Summertime\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e5\u003c\/span\u003e Josh McBride\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e6\u003c\/span\u003e Shake\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e7\u003c\/span\u003e Cruel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e8\u003c\/span\u003e Let's Be Still\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e9\u003c\/span\u003e My Friends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e10\u003c\/span\u003e 10,000 Weight in Gold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e11\u003c\/span\u003e Fire\/Fear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e12\u003c\/span\u003e These Days Are Numbered\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"aec-tracknum\"\u003e13\u003c\/span\u003e Gone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 2026-02-27\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Rock\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Head and the Heart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50080350372033,"sku":"NXILM6-S91D-A9","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2176\/9085\/files\/the-head-and-the-heart-lets-be-still-limited-edition-gold-colored-vinyl-2-lps_QUyyl.png?v=1774453622","url":"https:\/\/fsgprints.com\/products\/the-head-and-the-heart-lets-be-still-limited-edition-gold-colored-vinyl-2-lps","provider":"Feels So Good","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
