New Release from Ryan Bingham "Fear and Saturday Night" On Universal Music New Zealand

Ryan Bingham is happy. For someone who memorably sang on his last album, "Some say the angels are all looking down. I only saw vultures circling around," this marks a seismic shift.

That release, 2012's bleak Tomorrowland, dealt with the aftermath of his parents' deaths — his mother from alcohol and his father by suicide. Though their loss still weighs heavily on his mind, Bingham has more good days than bad now, in part due to the upcoming birth of the singer-songwriter's first child with wife Anna Axster.

Fear and Saturday Night sees Bingham explore the newfound joy of having someone by his side as he moves from the darkness into the light.
