Brian Fallon\u2019s rock star days are firmly behind him. And no one is more accepting of that fact than Brian Fallon.<\/p>\n

Having recently turned 40, the New Jersey legend has left more than his youth in his rearview. His former outfit, The Gaslight Anthem, reunited for a string of reunion shows in 2018 but now only exists in that murky grey area known as \u201cindefinite hiatus.\u201d He released two well-received solo albums in the past four years, 2016\u2019s Painkillers and 2018\u2019s Sleepwalkers, but even those records dwell more in the rock genre than anywhere else.<\/p>\n

Now, with his new solo album, Local Honey, and a partnership for his own label with the venerated, artist-friendly outpost Thirty Tigers (Sturgill Simpson, Jason Isbell), Fallon has made the record he has always wanted to make and has put himself in a place to release it exactly as he pleases. Its acoustic-leaning, introspective, singer-songwriter artistry is a benchmark of a time and place, a heartfelt and grown-up sound that has been in his mind and in his heart for a long while. Unique amongst his output, Local Honey is a snapshot of Fallon\u2019s current existence and a masterstroke from an artist whose songwriting talent is boiling over.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>With Local Honey, Fallon has made a grand statement and is prepared to make yet another artistic leap, a form of destiny that remains fully under his own control and vision. Having finally navigated the turbulence of life-after-successful-rock-band, he is settling into his own as an artist and has learned that the best path for him is to simply go it alone on all levels.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think this record is about the process of growing up. I had spent so much time looking backwards and commenting on that life; a lot of older songs were written with rearview mirror commentary. And now that\u2019s just become part of me, it\u2019s made me who I am and now I\u2019m commenting on the current. Every single song here is about right now; this record is 100 percent about the day-to-day. It\u2019s not about these glorious dreams or miserable failures, it\u2019s just about life and how I see it. And I have to think that if this is my life, this is probably a lot of other people\u2019s lives, too.\u201d – Brian Fallon<\/p>\n
