“A soothing, touching return that places Tim Hart in introspective mode” – Clash
Tim Hart of the acclaimed Australian indie rock/folk band Boy & Bear has announced his sophomore album The Narrow Corner (Island Records/UMA) will be released Friday February 2nd, 2018. Pre-order HERE.
The first single, the catchy and touchingly melancholic “I’d Do Well,” is available today and was premiered via Clash.com. Fans who pre-order the digital album will instantly receive “I’d Do Well”. Full track-listing below.
“I’m really stoked to be releasing my new single I’d do well,” Tim Hart explains. “For me this song was written in one of my more introspective moments on tour. Missing home and thinking back to living life a bit more simply.”

Hart has a thing for honesty and convictions. He’s just not used to talking about it. As the drummer of insanely popular Boy & Bear, the majority of Hart’s musical life is spent behind the drum kit, touring the world, singing back-up vocals, and contributing song-writing to the award-winning Sydney group’s beloved songs and spirit.
This high-profile existence pushed Hart to make his 2012 debut album, “Milling the Wind,” a bare bones folk record. “Something that wasn’t so meticulous and thought out,” he says now. But for his long-overdue second album, The Narrow Corner, concept was shunted aside for life experience.
Track listing:
1. Two Days Straight
3. A Long Way
4. The Cutting Line
5. Maybe Just the Once
6. Stone’s Throw
7. All in All
8. Love Don’t Come for You
9. Not Mine for the Asking
10. Just a Matter of Time
11. St. Jack, Pt. 1
12. Water Fire
13. Cool Water
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 be supporting Stu Larsen in Europe from this week and sets out on his long-awaited Australian National tour in February 2018.
