Composed primarily of transplants to the Seattle area, The Head and the Heart write and play songs that speak to the newness of a fresh start, of the ghosts left behind, of moving forward, all brimming with a soulfulness and hope for a better life than the one we've all been sold.
Stylistically, think a folksy Beatles or The Avett Brothers with a little extra oomph. Catchy piano melodies stand side by side with a tight trio of harmonies, and solid minimalist drums, groovin' bass, and plenty of hand percussion and foot stomps make the live show inspiring and really goddamn fun.
After the band self-released its eponymous debut album in June 2010, the emblematic Seattle label Sub Pop re-released the album. For the Sub Pop version, the song “Sounds like Hallelujah” has been re-recorded, live favorite “Rivers and Roads” has been added, and the album has been re-mastered.
The band's second album "Let's Be Still" was released on October 15, 2013.
The band released their third studio album, "Signs of Light", in September 2016.
The band's fourth album, "Living Mirage", was released in May 2019.
Band member Josiah Johnson released his debut solo album, "Every Feeling On a Loop", in September 2020.

The Head and the Heart Lyrics
I saw the colors fade away
I saw the colors fade away
I saw the colors fade away
I saw the colors fade away
I see you're kickin' the can down the road
And you're stirrin' up the dust
I hear you in the moonlight
Every word seems like you said
I saw the colors fade away from you, you said
I saw the colors fade away
I saw the colors fade away from you now, honey
I saw the colors fade away
So the ceiling looks the same as it did in the mornin'
And it feels like a storm, but it's all in your head
And I know that you feel like you're not gettin' what you need right now
But give it a night, wait for the light, yeah
Well, well what can you say
When your love just starts to fade away
Who can you tell?
You know this song just won't go away
Thinkin' back to the time before
Lookin' up from beyond the floor
Did you not feel that somethin' too
Takin' it back bringin' it up on everything
I saw the colors fade away
I saw the colors fade away from you
I saw the colors fade away from you
I saw the colors fade away
Well, well what can you say
When your love just starts to fade away
Who can you tell?
You know this song just won't go away
I saw the colors fade away from you
I saw the colors fade away
I saw the colors fade away from you now, honey
I saw the colors fade away
I saw the colors fade away
I saw the colors fade away
I saw the colors fade away from you
I saw the colors fade away
