After five albums together, The Head and The Heart have journeyed their way through a lot of different terrain. Aperture, The Head and the Heart’s sixth and newest album, is the affirming sound of the band’s restart after their 2022 Every Shade of Blue tour. Jonathan Russell, who up till then led much of the songwriting, ceded that role to everyone, shooing away siloed work for a highly collaborative approach where everyone hatched tunes together in a room or passed ideas between coasts. With every song fortified by the sense of beginning again, Aperture is The Head and the Heart’s most vital and poignant album, sounding like the work of a band reaching unimagined levels of camaraderie and mutual risk as one.

A spirited homage to honesty and love, “Jubilee” is like the sun suddenly bursting from the clouds. It bounces like a piece of pop-punk and arcs like a Springsteen classic. During “Beg Steal Borrow,” The Head and The Heart’s trademark harmonies conjure communal aspirations. And there may be no better summary of this fellow feeling than the mighty “Arrow,” a shout-along song about sometimes needing the space to roam and fail on your own or guided and helped by those around you. The Head and The Heart has finally found a way for its six members to find their own ideas and then build them, together, into something magnificent.
