HOURGLASS OUT MARCH 10, 2015

U.S. TOUR WITH TYRONE WELLS BEGINS MARCH 18 IN SAN FRANCISCO

24 year-old singer / songwriter Emily Hearn will release Hourglass on March 10, 2015 but fans can hear the first single, “Volcano” exclusively on CBSNews.com today HERE and will be available for purchase through iTunes tomorrow, January 27, 2015. “Volcano” is a melancholy song about the slow cooling of a relationship as the love falls apart.

Hourglass, which was produced by Chad Copelin (Green River Ordinance, Ben Rector), and written in her native Athens, GA as well as Michigan, Tennessee and North Carolina with her bassist husband, Michael Harrison as well as collaborations with Ben Rector (“Please, Don’t Take My Love Away” and “Save Me”) and Emily Lynch (“Volcano”), is an assortment of twelve beautifully poignant and effervescent songs that came together from one inspiration: time and how it affects us.

Hourglass is a collection that has encompassed almost two years worth of conversations, musings, inspirations and defining moments in Hearn’s life. “We fall in or out of love as time moves us. We learn life-changing lessons as time goes on. We figure out how to handle important relationships as time shapes us. We decide who we want to be and what we believe as time reveals our priorities. And ultimately, we grow older as time goes by,” said Hearn.

Hearn will be on taking these songs on the road for three months to play several dates with Tyrone Wells beginning March 18, 2015 at The Independent in San Francisco. The tour will be hitting over thirty tour markets throughout the United States and will be going to many west coast cities Hearn has never played before. The tour will go through mid-May.

Hourglass is the follow up to her 2013 Promises EP and 2012 album Paper Heart which included the song “Rooftop” and featured a dancing, drum-playing Bill Murray in the music video. Watch it HERE.
