The Get Ahead to Release New Album, 'Deepest Light'
“Last night was not the best night, but it wasn't the worst night either,” admits Nathan Earle. His wife, Juliet Howard, hums in agreement. Though the two create powerhouse Americana Soul and shimmering indie roots music as part of Portland, Oregon's The Get Ahead, they're not recalling a so-so show at a local venue. Instead, Nathan and Juliet are transitioning to parenthood with the often insomnious reality of caring for their five-week-old daughter. Along with longtime friend Sean Farrell and couple Danny and Angie Johnson, The Get Ahead are about as tight-knit as it gets. Comprised of two married couples, multiple long-term friendships, and now a baby, they consider each other more than just friends. “We have really become a family band,” says Nathan. Their newest record, Deepest Light, will be released on April 26 via Jullian Records.
