On “These Are The Days That Turn Into Years”, their seventh studio album, Pharis & Jason Romero, following their 2022 release, channel four years of living, touring, parenting and banjo-building into their most open-hearted set yet. Tracked in their riverside Horsefly barn, it feels lived-in and luminous — a pure rootsy joyride that will send you straight back to the opening track.

Pharis & Jason Romero return on June 12th with “These Are The Days That Turn In To Years”, their seventh studio album for Free Dirt Records. Recorded at the duo’s restored riverside barn in Horsefly, BC, it is, in press notes, “a songwriter’s deep exhale, replete with stories, love, and nostalgia.” Title track “These Are The Days” is out now.

Bet On Love is another warm, homespun, pure folk gem from the Romeros, who are such naturals within their sonic realm that they possess the knack of making it sound totally effortless.

Watch the video for ‘Bet on Love’, the title track of the new album from Pharis and Jason Romero. A stunning song that features Pharis’ most personal writing and this intimacy reverberates throughout the record.

Watch We All Fall, a song with a lesson, taken from ‘Bet on Love’, the new ‘homegrown’ album from Pharis and Jason Romero – a modern folk ode – to sentimental anchorings and to relationships between place, people and time.

Sweet Old Religion communicates genuine warmth and feel-good grooves, delivered with beautifully crafted musicianship and singing – a textbook illustration of Pharis and Jason’s delightfully handmade, homegrown music.

There’s a lot to savour on ‘A Wanderer I’ll Stay’, not least a free and easy feel to the delivery, some deeply embedded hooks that emerge the more you listen and cultured playing. Allied to some good songs and those incredible voices, it’s a delicious little nugget of an album.
