History

Fiddlehead released their first EP in 2014, titled Out of the Bloom.[2] In 2018, Fiddlehead signed to the Boston record label Run for Cover Records and released their debut full-length album titled Springtime and Blind. In 2021, they released their second full-length on Run for Cover, “Between the Richness.” [3][4][5][1][6][7]

The band rarely tours often due to Patrick Flynn being a full-time high school history teacher. The band tends to play one-off shows or small weekend tours.
