Boy & Bear Release First Single Off Forthcoming Third Album

Staff Writer

Recorded in the UK with producer Ethan Johns, Boy & Bear release their third album in Oct but lift Walk The Wire off the album for a first single

Boy & Bear Profile

With their third album, Limit Of Love, set for release 9 Oct, Boy & Bear are preparing the way and lifted the first single from it, Walk The Wire.

This time the band opted to record the album in the UK at Peter Gabriel's Real World Studios with producer Ethan Johns, whose CV includes records for Ryan Adams, Kings of Leon and Kaiser Chiefs among others. No pressure of course - after all, the guys had to at least match what they'd achieved with the previous Boy & Bear album, the platinum-selling #1 ARIA Album-charting Harlequin Dream. Then again, their debut album, Moonfire, garnered five ARIA Awards.

Boy & Bear cut Limit Of Love, this time written collectively, live in the studio - and for some of that analogue depth, straight onto tape rather than into the computer.
