Background and development

In June 2012, Gemma Hayes announced she was writing new material in Ireland.[11] Hayes had previously planned to move back to Los Angeles to work on the album, but later decided against this decision and continued to reside in Dublin.[12]

By 9 August 2012, Hayes announced she had begun a side-project with long-term producer David Odlum and was continuing to work on her own material. Hayes also confirmed the future release of a live limited edition vinyl (previously billed for 2013 release).Night & Day's release was deferred until spring 2014 and was funded through her Pledge Music campaign. By October 2012, Hayes began a short tour of Ireland and the UK, Hayes would not return to the live music scene until 2013.[13]

By 22 April 2013, Hayes announced a new batch of songs were written while in Ireland and demos where being finalized in a studio in France where the bones of the fifth studio album (later titled named as Bones+Longing) were recorded.[14][15]

During July 2013, Hayes returned to Ireland to tour as part of A Woman's Heart.[16] On 16 August 2013 Hayes launched her Pledge Music campaign where fans and pledgers could support the album's production and release[17][18]

During the early stages of the album's production Hayes became pregnant and production finished in late December and recommenced again in mid-February due to the birth of her baby. On 10 April 2014, Hayes revealed the titles of three new songs 'To Be Your Honey' (a preview of which was made available on her website), 'Palomino' and 'Making My Way Back'. Hayes later confirmed mixing and mastering took place in France the next month[19]

In April 2014, Hayes performed a number of UK gigs[20][21] prior to the release of the fifth studio album. These gigs were part of her Pledge Music campaign. On 16 June 2014, Hayes confirmed the album was completed.[22]

On 24 June 2014, her management hinted the album's title as Bones & Longing.[4] Following this Hayes discussed the album's production and confirmed new tracks were recorded including 'The Shit I Own’ and ‘Caught My Hand’. A 21-second snippet of a new track ‘Making My Way Back’ was also revealed.[23]

On 9 July 2014, the album's producer David Odlum confirmed the albums was mixed and mastered and ready for a late autumn release.[24] On 29 July 2014 Hayes' management confirmed a photoshoot took place to promote the forthcoming album release.[25]

On 22 September 2014, Hayes announced the first single release from album 'Chasing' would precede the album's release due in November.[27]

The album was released independently through her own label Chasing Dragons (similar to Hollow of Morning and Let It Break), it was initially anticipated for the album to be licensed to other labels for release in other territories.

On 20 September 2014, the album's artwork was revealed.[28] On 1 October 2014 the album's full track listing was revealed along with 30-second snippets of each track.[29]

The album was made available internationally from 17 November exclusively through her Pledge Music campaign. It became available on CD and iTunes in February 2015 and March 2015 in various territories. The album was distributed by Kartel (UK, US), Katel Bertus (France, Belgium), Shock (Australia/New Zealand), Membrane (Switzerland, Austria and Germany) and Fontana North (Canada).[citation needed]

The vinyl release was delayed numerous times before being made available in early June 2015. The limited deluxe edition will be released in late September/early October 2015.[citation needed]

Release formats

The album was in digital format on Irish iTunes on 17 November 2014 with a bonus track 'The Shit I Own'. The standard CD version includes only 11 tracks (excluding 'The Shit I Own') released in Ireland on 14 November 2014.[35] The standard vinyl edition features the original 11 tracks,[36] while a very limited deluxe vinyl edition (300 in total) is featured in a 12" case bound hardback cover, with a 32-page booklet with exclusive photos from the recording process and song lyrics. Each deluxe edition is hand numbered.[37] due for release in June 2015. Additional tracks will feature on the limited edition deluxe vinyl.

Single releases

Prior to the album's release 'Palomino' was initially planned to be the first promo release but was delayed and replaced with 'Chasing'.[38][39] On 9 October 2014 'Chasing' was given for free to those who registered and supported her Pledge Music campaign.[40] The track also appeared in the iTunes store in Ireland,[33] Canada,[32] US[31] and UK[41] on Friday, 10 October 2014 as part of the Bones+Longing pre-order. The single instantly downloaded upon pre-ordering the album. The second single release in Ireland is 'Making My Way'. This track featured in Aldi Ireland's Christmas advertising campaign.The song appeared on Irish television on 6 November 2014.[42] The track later appeared in the Irish iTunes Store on 6 November 2014.[2]

'Palomino' was finally released as a single on 18 April 2015 on a limited edition 7" vinyl to mark Record Store Day. The single was also released as a digital download.

'Laughter' is expected to be the next single release from the album and it is due for an international release on 7 August 2015.[43]

Airplay

Irish radio picked up a number of the tracks from the album upon its release. "Chasing" did not receive the same amount of airplay as other tracks from the album. "Laughter" and "Making My Way Back" were added to the RTÉ 2XM playlist from early November. "Making My Way Back" had more commercial success than "Chasing". Both "Making My Way Back" and "Bones+Longing" received airplay on RTÉ Radio 1.[44] 'Chasing' received airplay on BBC 6 Music.[45] Following the album's release, both "Joy"[46] and "I Dreamt You Were Fine"[47] were picked up by Today FM.

Radio stations across the UK, Australia, France and Germany among others picked up "Palomino" for radio play, which proved popular on German and Australian radio.[citation needed]

Charts

Following the album's debut in the Irish Albums Chart it reached number 38. It reached number 4 in the Irish Indie Chart and number 10 in the Irish iTunes Album Chart. This is her worst performing album from her portfolio despite the positive reviews. Its low position in the Irish Albums Chart is due to a number of factors such as; the download version of the album was released three days later than normal. On 17 November, the CD version was released, three days later than normal for the Irish marketplace. Also those albums downloaded or purchased through her Pledge Music campaign were ineligible to chart in Ireland.

The album failed to chart in other territories.
