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 Springtime and Blind. In 2021, they released their second full-length on Run for Cover, Between the Richness.^{[3][4][5][1][6][7]} In 2023, they released their third full-length on Run for Cover, Death Is Nothing to Us.^[8]

The band rarely participates in full-length tours, often due to Patrick Flynn's full-time career as a high school history teacher.^[9] Instead, the band tends to commit to one-off shows or small weekend tours of a single region at a time.
